| March 27, 2000—Donna
Welke keeps her ear to the ground. It’s her job. She is the Canadian Grain
Commission’s assistant commissioner for Saskatchewan. She attends producer seminars,
agricultural exhibitions and conferences and takes issues important to Saskatchewan’s
grain farmers to the CGC in Winnipeg. Her
job doesn’t end there. Working out of Regina, Welke investigates disagreements
farmers may have with grain companies and she works with both parties to resolve them.
Donna’s strong background in farming, rural communities and small business gives her
insight into the problems and stresses of the farming way of life.
Donna also brings the CGC to Saskatchewan. Hers
is a familiar face and voice representing the CGC at many meetings and conferences across
the province. She spends much of her time working to ensure the integrity of grain
handling operations and the maintenance of grain quality standards. |
