This was the first time the National Show was held in Quebec and it truly was a National event with cattle from across Canada showing and selling in this enthusiasm filled event. The sale was held after the show in a corner of the barn which saw a very big crowd of Charolais and other breed breeders and commercial producers watch and participate. Bernard Begin, Francois Couture, Laurent Jordain and the entire Quebec Association Board need to be recognized for their work.
