SUMMARY:Sowing Seeds of Change: Alberta Farmer Organising Is Here To Stay!
DESCRIPTION:Join our Regional Workshop Webinar during NFU Days\, our annual membership drive running through February\, when new memberships are available at 50% off! But this month isn’t just about a discount. NFU members from coast to coast to coast are working hard on issues ranging from local abattoir regulations to climate change policy\, farmer income and farmland access\, to seed rights. This is your chance to help get that information into the hands of your farming friends and neighbours! \nWe’ll dive into a century of Alberta’s deep agrarian history\, including Black Settlers\, Métis Settlements\, Co-operatives\, and farmer-controlled marketing systems. As well as our region’s current work\, connecting farmers across distances\, strengthening surface rights advocacy\, and growing youth leadership. The union makes us strong. Together we make it stronger. This workshop highlights: Sowing Seeds for the Next Chapter of Alberta Farmer Organising! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSign up!

SUMMARY:Hearing Farmer Voices: A virtual town hall for farmers in BC
DESCRIPTION:A virtual town hall meeting to hear farmers’ thoughts on the recommendations of the Premier’s Task Force on Agriculture and Food Economy. \n\n\n\nHow can we use these recommendations to help us build food sovereignty in BC? \n\n\n\nNFU BC invites all farmers and advocates for resilient food systems to join us and share your thoughts. We are a democratic organization of farmers and farmworkers advancing policies that enable food sovereignty. Food sovereignty is\, in short\, food systems by the people\, for the people. If you have a role in feeding our communities\, we want to hear from you. We believe that everyone who grows and eats food deserves to have a say in shaping their food systems. \n\n\n\nWhen the president of the United States started announcing tariffs on Canadian goods and threats of annexation in early 2025\, the BC government responded by assembling a team of experts and sector representatives to provide guidance on how the province should navigate the shifting political and economic landscape. The Premier’s Task Force on Agriculture and Food Economy produced 32 recommendations on 5 key topics: Water\, Competitiveness\, Labour and talent\, Land\, and Investment. \n\n\n\nRead the recommendations here: https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/industry/agriculture-seafood/premier-s-task-force-on-agriculture-and-food-economy \n\n\n\nAcross ministries\, the provincial government will be using these recommendations to guide action on strengthening BC’s food systems. We have an opportunity to work together and influence how some of these recommendations are implemented\, and to use this list as a jumping off point to define our own food sovereignty goals. \n\n\n\n\nRegister Today!

SUMMARY:Climate and Community Conversation—Region 1
DESCRIPTION:Shape the conversation on climate change\, income security\, and community resilience – farmers can’t be left out! \nWe are in a farm income crisis. The National Farmers Union (NFU) continues to expose the issue and seek systemic change. In a recent press release; Grocery Prices are Rising and Farmers’ Share Declining as Corporate Processors and Retailers Take More and More\, the NFU states: “public data shows that corporate food processors and retailers have relentlessly\, for decades\, pushed up retail prices even as the prices paid to farmers remained largely stagnant.” Given the state of farm income further detailed in the Tackling the Farm Crisis and the Climate Crisis\, the NFU is convening three virtual conversations in Northern BC and the Yukon\, Northern Alberta\, and the Northwest Territories\, and the Atlantic provinces on the links between climate change\, income security\, and community resilience in partnership with the Green Resilience Project. We want to invite you to an upcoming event in your community. \nDates & times: \n\nNorthern Alberta and the Northwest Territories: January 17 5:30 – 7:30 PM MST\nNorthern BC and the Yukon: January 18\, 6:30 – 8:30 PM MST\, 5:30 – 7:30 PM PST\nAtlantic provinces: January 20\, 5 – 7 PM AST\n\nWho: Farmers and farm workers from the above three regions (NFU members and non-members) \nTo attend\, please register by filling out this google form. Thanks to funding and partnership with the Green Resilience Project\, we are able to offer participants a $50 honorarium for participation. We hope you’ll join us as we make farmers’ experiences heard. \nWhat is the Green Resilience Project?The Green Resilience Project was launched by a group of individuals and organizations working in climate change and income security\, who received funding from Environment and Climate Change Canada’s Climate Action and Awareness Fund to organize a series of conversations on the links between climate change\, income security and community resilience in communities. Farmers can’t be left out of these policy discussions and decisions. You can read more about the Project here.

SUMMARY:NFU Region 6\, District 3 Convention
DESCRIPTION:The Region 6\, District 3 (south western Saskatchewan) will be holding its Annual District Convention on Saturday\, January 26\, 2019 in the meeting room at the Modern Family Restaurant\, Swift Current\, SK\, 49 Central Ave N. \n The meeting will commence at 3:00 P.M. Dinner will be ordered off the menu. \nThe District Annual Convention is one of the cornerstones of the democratic process in the NFU\, so it’s absolutely vital that you\, your spouse and your children over the age of 14 exercise your right to participate.  Resolutions may be presented and considered at this Convention; if passed\, they will go to the National Convention for possible adoption as NFU national policy.  Another purpose of this Convention is to elect from among the members of the Union in your district\, a District Director\, a Women’s District Director and a Youth District Director. \nOur keynote speaker will be Cam Goff\, speaking on the corporate seed industry’s efforts to bring in new royalties to keep farmers from using farm-saved seed — and what the NFU is doing to protect farmers’ age-old right to freely save and reuse our own seed. \nIf you require further information\, you may call Ralph Renwick at (306) 587-7793 or (306) 587-2331.

SUMMARY:OUR Communities. OUR country. OUR world. OUR economy.
DESCRIPTION:OUR Communities. OUR country. OUR world. OUR economy.*  \nA public event featuring Jim Stanford\, PhD\, economist with the Unifor. \nHow can people effectively navigate this increasingly globalized and fragmented world\, where corporate power trumps that of elected governments? What can we do when we are systematically stripped of our democratic right to information so that we can provide feedback and make recommendations about policy decisions that profoundly affect our government’s ability to act in our best interests; when our freedom to dissent and resist becomes criminalized or labelled as terrorism; when governments enact legislation with the specific intent to crush organized resistance and dissent\, such as labour unions provide? \nEconomist Jim Stanford will talk about these and other economic and political factors that affect how Canadians organize themselves to represent their interests\, recreate democratic processes\, and reclaim and transform an economic system that has been hijacked by global corporate tycoons. He will tell the story of how two unions\, CAW and CEP (Communications\, Energy\, and Paperworkers)\, began to talk about doing things differently\, how that conversation ultimately resulted in the formation of Unifor\, Canada’s newest and largest labour union\, and what the NFU might learn from Unifor’s experience. \nEveryone is welcome – Admission is free.
