Russ McPherson, Economic Development Officer, Mid-Saskatchewan Community Futures Development Corporation/ Regional Economic Development Authority: I just preface our remarks by saying that, in terms of background, I live on a family farm, which we have been on for 103 years, and between my grandfather and I, we have represented the same seat on rural council for probably 40 per cent of the time that it has been a municipality.
