Alberta grain producers are encouraged to help shape the future of Canada's agriculture industry by participating in the 2008 Canadian Wheat Board (CWB) election.
Producers who did not automatically receive a voter package must submit an Application to Vote by November 14 to receive a ballot, and all completed ballots must be received by November 28 to be eligible.
"It is important that eligible producers exercise their right to vote," said George Groeneveld, Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development. "The CWB marketing system affects many sectors of our agriculture industry, including the critical area of marketing choice. This is an opportunity to influence an issue that is important to Alberta producers."
