The group representing Canadian ranchers has changed its name.
The Canadian Cattlemen’s Association, which represents more than 60 thousand ranchers and feedlot operators nationwide, will now be known as the Canadian Cattle Association.
The group has had the word “Cattlemen” in its name since its founding in 1932.
But president Reg Schellenberg says today’s ranchers are a strong and diverse group of people.
He says the organization wants to be more gender-inclusive.
Reg Schellenberg of Beechy is the president of the newly-named Canadian Cattle Association.
