Description: At the end of World War II\, approximatel y one-third of Canadians lived on farms. In 2012\, less than 3% of Canadia ns make up the country’s farm families\, and less than one-third of those produce most of what we eat. Society has become detached from the producti on of its ‘daily bread’ but is reinvigorating its interest in the question of “What’s for dinner?” in an era dominated by headlines of e.coli\, gene tic modification and corporate dominance of food processing and distributi on. This session will interest those who want to know more about the histo rical roots of food production in Canada\, the future of the family farm a nd global food security (part one). This will segue into the question of “ Where did that food on my dinner plate come from?”\, as well as some of th e options they can exercise as individuals to control and influence their food choices\, including an examination of the possibilities of producing more of their own produce (part two).  Facilitator: Hugh Maynard is a c onsulting specialist and owner of Qu’anglo Communications & Consulting\, a n enterprise with a focus on communications\, strategic planning and devel opment initiatives for agricultural and rural communities.
