We thank Huguette Allen for arranging the event in Vernon, and for being so involved with the efforts in the local community to try and encourage local growers supplying local consumers, and the general issues of sustainability. And like she says in the audio (click on her name at the top of the page to listen to it) - you can come and listen to the presentation, or partake in the discussion, or better still, coax a locally elected official such as councillor or MLA or MP, to also come and inform themselvs from a scientist that has not yet been muzzled by the Government.
