Democratizing agricultural trade union representation

Resolution #103: Democratizing agricultural trade union representation (Official French version)

The Union of Agricultural Producers (UPA) was granted the exclusive privilege of representing all of Québec’s farmers following a poll held in 1974. Since then, the UPA's trade union monopoly has never been renewed or questioned by ballot. The Conservative Party of Québec believes that the time has come to allow Québec’s farmers to become members of the producers’ union of their choosing, in accordance with their own interests.
