Alberta Canola Welcomes New Director for Region 6

Alberta Canola is pleased to welcome Jeff Lenz of Stony Plain as the newly appointed director representing Region 6 on the Board of the Alberta Canola Producers Commission.

Region 6 did not receive any nominations during the fall election, nor were any candidates nominated at the 2025 Annual General Meeting. As per the Commission’s regulations, the Board moved forward with appointing a director to ensure grower representation in the region.

“We’re excited to welcome Jeff to the board,” said Board Chair Andre Harpe. “Each director brings unique strengths and perspectives from their region to the table. With Jeff’s appointment, all 12 regions across Alberta now have farmer representation.”

Jeff steps into the role previously held by Wayne Schneider of Nisku. “It’s a privilege to represent the growers in Region 6,” said Lenz. “I look forward to contributing to the discussions and decisions that impact canola growers across Alberta.”
