Any chance that Ontario farmers will receive federal funding for their Risk Management Program, at least for four years, died in the late hours of May 2 as the Conservatives rolled to an impressive majority government.
Rural Ontario helped write the script for the Risk Management Program rejection by continuing its massive support for Conservatives, despite the fact that they were the only candidates to flatly reject federal funding for provincial business risk management programs.
