Canadian Western Agribition is on this week in Regina.  It's an incredible show featuring the best of the best in livestock.  In fact, it's the largest livestock show in Canada.

 

Beef cattle anchor the show but you'll also find horses, bison, goats and sheep and a wonderful agribusiness trade show.

You'll find friends and neighbours at the show along with over 800 international guests from over 70 countries around the world.  Really.  They come to look and learn and to buy and sell.  

 

You know, despite the fact the livestock industry is one of the keys to the local economy, most of us have friends who have absolutely no clue how it works.  I was one of those people back when I first got into the broadcast industry.  I was hesitant to cover Agribition as a reporter because I was ignorant.  My first trip to Agribition didn't just open my eyes, it was fascinating.

 

If you're a regular at Agribition, I don't have to sell you.  You know.  If you've never been to the show, I'd highly recommend a trip into Regina this week.  I promise it'll be memorable.
