The L’Union des cultivateurs franco-ontariens (UCFO) applied to the Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs Appeal Tribunal for eligibility for special funding under the Farm Registration and Farm Organizations Funding Act, 1993.
The Tribunal reviewed the evidence against the statutory criteria, including the organization's promotion of agricultural awareness among francophones, provision of advice to governments, and maintenance of ties with other farm organizations.
The Tribunal found that the UCFO met all conditions and criteria for eligibility.
The application for special funding was granted for a three-year period.
