Premier Danielle Smith issued the following statement celebrating Thanksgiving:

“Thanksgiving provides all of us the opportunity to take time out of our busy lives to remember what’s truly important.

“As Albertans, we have much to be thankful for: the families and friends around us, the opportunity to enjoy the natural beauty throughout our province, the freedom to worship as we choose and the ability to work in our chosen fields and pursue world-class education.

“Alberta is a place where everyone, no matter their origins, can take part in the Alberta advantage and our province’s shared prosperity.

“In whatever way you celebrate today and with whoever you spend the day, I want to wish everyone a safe and happy Thanksgiving.”

Before trade and tariffs dominated the conversation, taxation was one of the biggest issues on farmers’ minds last year. From the carbon tax to capital gains, OFA worked with the Canadian Federation of Agriculture and provincial partners to push for fair, practical solutions. We saw progress on carbon tax relief and capital gains, and we continue to advocate for modernized farm tax programs at both the provincial and federal levels.

OFA works to represent the interests of Ontario farmers to all levels of government. Renew your Farm Business Registration (FBR) by March 1/26 and choose OFA so we can continue to support Ontario farmers and their businesses.
