VFO provincial election priorities
Ahead of the upcoming provincial election, the Veal Farmers of Ontario (VFO) Board of Directors has identified priority issues for our sector and we encourage producers to share them in conversations with their local Member of Provincial Parliament (MPP) candidates.
