Biography/Administrative history:

Show detail Hide detail

National Farm Radio Forum : The National Farm Radio Forum was launched in January 1941 as a group discussion project for the people of rural Canada. It was sponsored by the Canadian Broadcasting Association, the Canadian Federation of Agriculture and the Canadian Association for Adult Education. The idea of a farmers' radio forum originated in the economic depression of the 1930s. The purpose was to provide farmers with a new incentive for group action, greater understanding of their problems and a widening sense of community.

Provincial executives co-ordinated local and provincial activities and in Ontario, county activities as well. They also participated in the executive of the National Farm Radio Forum by compiling "audience reaction" summaries, which formed the basis for future broadcasts, discussion topics and publications.
