CANADIAN YOUNG SPEAKERS FOR AGRICULTURE “Do you like a challenge?” “Would you like to share your enthusiasm for agriculture with an interested audience?” “Does the opportunity to win a substantial cash prize appeal to you?” “Are you 11 to 24 years old?” If you answered ‘yes’ to any of these questions, you may be interested in participating in the Canadian Young Speakers for Agriculture competition, held annually in November at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair in Toronto, as part of Youth Weekend. Competition this year: Nov. 6 at 9am. It’s an opportunity to develop your public speaking skills and a forum to express community concerns. The competition originated in 1985 in honour of International Youth Year, and was originally sponsored by the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. Farm Credit Canada joined as a co-sponsor in 1987. There are cash prizes for the six finalists in both the Junior Competition (ages 11-15) and Senior Competition (ages 16-24). The Senior Champion will receive $1,000, while the Junior Champion is awarded $500. Topics for this year’s competition are: • Canadian Agricultural Hall of Fame – profile someone and share their impact • Who will feed the world in 50 years? • What is the biggest challenge in agriculture today? • Exploring First Nationals agriculture in Canada • What are the biggest events in Canadian agricultural history?
