Farmers to elect CWB directors amid major reforms
The Canadian Wheat Board faces sweeping change as Bill C4 opens the door for farmers to elect new directors. Board members will navigate between export duties and evolving transport links while balancing the needs of Prairie farmers and the wider grain economy. Leroy Larsen of Saskatchewan Wheat Pool highlights the pivotal first year decisions and the shift from cooperative roots to a diversified, large commercial entity. The fall vote will determine who leads this evolution and coordinates the export chain across rail and port systems.
