Lethbridge Chamber Makes Recommendations on Bill 6
LETHBRIDGE – The Chamber of Commerce has made a number of recommendations on the Enhanced Protection for Farm and Ranch Workers Act.
This comes after the Chamber met with industry representatives to get an idea of the concerns moving forward with Bill 6.
President Melody Garner says they heard that many producers want more information on what the WCB program is and how it will impact their operation, as well they were concerned if there’s enough time to get all 43,000 farms and ranches signed up on this by the implementation date.
The Lethbridge Chamber was asked to take a lead on this project because southern Alberta is such a huge agriculture community and this bill impacts our region so heavily.
