Emily Crocco, a lawyer with more than two decades of experience in administrative law in the public and private sectors, started her five-year term as the chairperson of the Canada Agricultural Review Tribunal on Jan. 17.
The tribunal, established in 1983, is “a federal quasi-judicial administrative tribunal and has exclusive jurisdiction to determine all matters relating to the validity of administrative penalties imposed for violations in the agriculture and agri-food sector,” the tribunal’s website says.
