CANADIAN CATTLE ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT’S REPORT, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 85

department officials.

Representatives from CCA have also been on the ground and active participants in conversations happening globally about the environment, food insecurity, climate change, and biodiversity. CCA was pleased to represent the Canadian beef industry at COP27 in Egypt in both our own delegation and joining the Government of Canada’s delegation.

Bob Lowe, CCA’s Past President and Mitchell Zoratti, CCA’s Environment and Climate Change Coordinator, highlighted our leadership and experience in sustainable cattle production as speakers at the conference. We are also proud that our short film, Guardians of the Grasslands, was featured at the Government of Canada’s pavilion.

We also had the opportunity to participate in the COP15 hosted by China in Montreal, which focused on biodiversity. It was a venue to highlight the role that working grazing landscapes in Canada play in carbon sequestration and biodiversity and our leadership on this issue.

You can count on us to be at the table representing your interests and ensuring the best outcome possible for cattle producers across Canada, whether it is at home or on the international stage. CCA needs to be a part of these conversations to ensure that an accurate perspective of sustainable beef production is considered in these important policy discussions.

From all of us at CCA, Merry Christmas! May you be surrounded by loved ones during this Christmas season!
