Ontario Foods ~ Why they should be the first ones to look for when you shop... And how you can find them. Ontario's farmers give us some of the fingst quality food products and some of the best food values in the world. That's why Ontario's Ministry of Agriculture and Food has developed this new Foodland Ontario symbol to help you find them. It will help you identify the superb Ontario-grown foods for sale at your store. Their value and quality alone are enough to make them 'best buys' on your shopping list. But there are other good reasons why you should look for this symbol. Ontario's farmers and their - families make up only 5% of Ontario's population. Yet our farm neighbours ~ produce some 200 food commodities worth $3 billion a year. Like the rest of us, our farmers look for a reasonable standard of living for their hard work and often risky investment. In return they offer their Ontario neighbours a wide variety of high quality farm products at fair prices. i We still import more food into Ontario than we export. Our trade balance would be much better if we consumed more of our own farm products. By doing so we could ensure a good livelihood for our producers. And we'd have increased activity and employment in our large food processing and retailing industries. We'd also assure the continued best use of our prime farmland. The benefits are for all of us. We all have an investment in the continued good health of our agricultural economy. It's not just sentiment for our family farm heritage -- it's plain common sense. We should protect and reinforce our investment in Ontario through our shopping choices. Buy the fine products of Foodland Ontario. Look for them wherever you see the Foodland Ontario symbol. Good Things Grow In Ontario. William Newman, Minister of Agriculture nd Food William Davis, Premier Province of Ontario
