Dec 20, 2022

OTTAWA, ON, - The Honourable Marie-Claude Bibeau, Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food, today announced the appointment of Emily Crocco as Chairperson and Full-Time Member of the Canada Agricultural Review Tribunal.

Ms. Crocco began her legal career more than 20 years ago and has since developed a broad knowledge of administrative law. She has worked as a lawyer in both the private sector and for the federal tribunals. She has also served as an adjudicator in two Ontario provincial tribunals.

As Chairperson of the Tribunal, Ms. Crocco will adjudicate cases brought before the Tribunal and divide the work among the three part-time members. Ms. Crocco was appointed for a five-year term effective January 17, 2023.

In 2016, the Government of Canada implemented an open, transparent and merit-based process for selecting Governor in Council appointees. Appointees play a fundamental role in Canada's democracy by serving on commissions, boards, Crown corporations, agencies and tribunals across the country.

Video: What is Anhydrous Ammonia and Why Do We Use It?

Border View Farms is a mid-sized family farm that sits on the Ohio-Michigan border. My name is Nathan. I make and edit all of the videos posted here. I farm with my dad, Mark and uncle, Phil. Our part-time employee, Brock, also helps with the filming. 1980 was our first year in Waldron where our main farm is now. Since then we have grown the operation from just a couple hundred acres to over 3,000. Watch my 500th video for a history of our farm I filmed with my dad.

I started making these videos in the fall of 2019 as a way to help show what I do on a daily basis as a farmer. Agriculture is different from any other industry and I believe the more people that are showing their small piece of agriculture, helps to build our story. We face unique challenges and stressful situations but have some of the most rewarding payoffs in the end. I get to spend everyday doing what I love, raising my kids on the farm, and trying to push our farm to be better every year. I hope that I can address questions or concerns that you might have about farms and agriculture.
