Tasting Inspiration

Hundreds of producers and food processors gathered in Vaughan on March 9, 2010, to become inspired by some of Canada’s most entertaining and enlightening speakers at the Farm Credit Canada Forum. The event featured inspirational stories from CBC’s Peter Mansbridge, Paralympian Chantal Petitclerc, and entrepreneurs Chris Emery and Larry Finnson. Petitclerc shared her heroic life journey to becoming a Paralympic champion, while Emery and Finnson followed with their success story of creating Clodhoppers candy. Finally, Mansbridge shared some of his incredible experiences as a Canadian journalist to a group of people who work hard to feed our country. www.fcc.ca/learning
