Alpha Milk grant sparks farmer protest over plant shift
Siegfried Kappler, on behalf of 11 Medicine Hat dairy farmers, protests a provincial grant to Alpha Milk Company for a Lethbridge plant. The farmers hoped a local plant would replace the closed Medicine Hat facility and seek renewal under the Nutritive Processing Agreement. The project received 80 percent of the promised grant with potential remaining funds after audits and a three year control period.

Labor attacks Axworthy’s work scheme in Canada
Organized labor and the Canadian Chamber of Commerce criticized Employment Minister Lloyd Axworthy after a Val-Morin policy seminar. He proposed permanent work-sharing as a long term solution, saying Canadians may have to work less to allow others to find work, a plan opposed by labor leaders who prefer full employment and oppose using unemployment insurance for retraining or job creation.
