Tribunal renewed UCFO's eligibility for special funding as a francophone agricultural organization.
The Union des cultivateurs franco-ontariens (UCFO) applied to the Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs Appeal Tribunal for renewal of its eligibility for special funding under the Farm Registration and Farm Organizations Funding Act, 1993.
The Tribunal reviewed the statutory criteria, including the organization's role in promoting francophone awareness of agriculture, providing education, and maintaining ties with other agricultural organizations.
Finding that the UCFO met all conditions and criteria, the Tribunal granted the application and renewed the special funding eligibility for a three-year period.
