NFU Region 5 Co-ordinator Jack Skelton told March 16 farmers meeting that the Pepin Proposal would industrialize agriculture, lower farm grain prices, erode the Canadian Wheat Board’s powers, and open 50 000 acres of coal while benefiting CPR subsidiary Fording Coal. He warned the plan threatens Crow’s Nest Pass freight acts and national interests.
