Over this past week, the Canadian Agricultural Communicators of Tomorrow (CanACT) club from the University of Guelph, welcomed Oklahoma State University’s Agriculture Communications students to Southwestern Ontario. This was part two of an exchange initiative between the two universities. The focus of the exchange was to learn about agriculture communications similarities and differences between Canada and the United States. Building future rural leaders who understand the relations between Canada’s biggest agricultural trading partner, the United States, is vital if we want to maintain strong ties to the industry. The CanACT club is fortunate enough to have friends in agriculture who understand the importance of this educational exchange. A big thank you to six sponsors who supported this initiative: The Ontario Cattlemen’s Association, The Grain Farmers of Ontario, Dairy Farmers of Ontario, OAC Alumni Association, Student Federation of the Ontario Agricultural College, and Kubota. The CanACT students will be communicating their experiences in several upcoming media publications including the Ontario Beef magazine.
