ABP to host dedicated traceability discussion

As ABP’s Annual General Meeting (AGM) follows a formal governance agenda, with strict time limits for input, ABP has scheduled this Producer Town Hall on Traceability to ensure there is dedicated time for open discussion preceding the AGM. 

This session builds on discussions already taking place across the province and provides another opportunity for those Alberta cattle producers who were unable to attend Producer Meetings to participate. 

ABP recognizes that producers hold a range of perspectives on traceability. The Town Hall is intended to provide a respectful forum for open dialogue where all viewpoints can be shared and considered. 

Confirmed attendees include representatives from the Government of Alberta (GOA) and the Office of the Chief Provincial Veterinarian. 

Alberta Beef Producers, Canadian Cattle Association (CCA), Canadian Cattle Identification Agency (CCIA), and Livestock Identification Services (LIS) will be in attendance to listen and engage in the discussion. 

ABP’s goal is to ensure producers’ voices are heard as conversations around traceability continue to evolve.

Event Details

Mon, March 2, 1:30 PM to 4:30 PM

Sheraton Cavalier Calgary Hotel

Alberta cattle producers are invited to attend in person or virtually. Registration is required.
