Director: Mike Duguid

MBP is a non-profit organization with a producer-elected board consisting of 14 directors, each representing producers in a specific region or district of the province. We work on behalf of approximately 6,000 beef producers, including those in the cow-calf, backgrounding and finishing sectors. Our mission is to represent you through communication, advocacy, research, and education — within the industry and to governments, consumers and others to improve prosperity and ensure a sustainable future.

MBP welcomes your calls, letters and emails as we work to serve our industry’s needs and interests. The fast-approaching district meetings also provide a valuable opportunity for face-to-face conversations between MBP’s directors, staff, producers and other stakeholders. Key district meeting components will include: an overview of MBP’s finances; updates on policies, issues and trends affecting the industry; and, the opportunity for you to help guide MBP’s activities through the formulation of resolutions for debate at the AGM.

This year’s in-person meetings in even-numbered districts will start at 4:30 p.m. with some presentations. There will be a break around 5:30 p.m. for a free beef meal and fellowship. At 6:15 p.m. presentations will resume and director elections will be held. There will also be an opportunity to explore possible resolutions for debate at the 45th AGM in Brandon or to suggest action items for MBP.

Producers from odd-numbered districts are invited to attend a meeting in an even-numbered district if it is convenient for them, but they are not eligible to vote in the director elections there.

There will be an evening virtual meeting for those unable to attend an in-person meeting. It will be held on Monday, November 7 starting at 7 p.m.

Regarding resolutions, if you are unable to attend a district meeting, MBP will have a form available on its website for producers wishing to put forward resolutions to be considered for possible debate at the 45th AGM.

Re: director elections, if you would like to let your name stand for director in an even-numbered district, or, if you know of someone who would be a good addition to MBP’s board of directors, please contact our General Manager Carson Callum for more details. Nominations for even-numbered districts remain open until those respective meetings.
