Event Description

The Speak Up team concept was developed more than 15 years ago and has now expanded across the country with courses given to farmers and others working in agriculture in every province. The training gives participants the ability to tell their stories, in an easy-to-understand and compelling manner. This could be of use in media interviews, in farm tours, at council meetings, to service club members, to school groups and more.

In this workshop, you’ll learn who your average Canadian is, how much they know or don’t know about food and farming and how to tell your farm story to a non-farming audience.

Registration – $30
Space is limited, register early. The $30 registration fee includes the workshop and dinner.

On its first day back after a 21-week break, the government under Premier Doug Ford introduced a sweeping bill that could change how Ontarians learn about provincial decisions affecting the environment — and what residents can do if they disagree. By day two, Bill 140, the Building Ontario Faster Act, 2026, reached second reading. But it didn’t sit well with the opposition. “The government does not want people to tell them what they think. I very much would like the public to have a chance to participate in their democracy,” Oshawa MPP Jennifer K. French said during debate at Queen’s Park on Oct. 28. For more than three decades, the Environmental Bill of Rights has given Ontarians a formal role in government decisions that could affect their air, water, land and communities. “It gives the public a wide range of tools that they can use to protect themselves and protect the environment,” Richard Lindgren, a lawyer with the Canadian Environmental Law Association said. “But if Bill 140
