Gate Capital Campaign Completes its Cabinet

The Global Agriculture Technology Exchange (Gate) Capital Campaign today completed its cabinet with the addition of member Gene Fraser. The sixth and final member to be named to the Cabinet, Fraser is the past vice-president of MacDon, a world leader in technology, innovation, and manufacturing of high-performance harvesting equipment.

“I am motivated to be a part of Cereals Canada’s exciting project, Gate,” said Fraser. “Agriculture has shaped my journey—from the family farm in Antigonish to the global stage with MacDon. I believe for Canada to continue to be the global leader in cereal grains innovation and sustainability, it will take a powerful combination of vision, leadership, and action. I see Gate offering all three of these components.”

“The future of Canada’s grain progress through Gate will be driven by collaboration and investment and I am proud to be a part of this important effort,” he added.

Led by JoAnne Buth, former Manitoba Senator and agriculture advocate, the Gate Capital Campaign Cabinet is made up of industry and community leaders with deep ties to agriculture.

“With our cabinet now complete, we are moving forward with an exceptional team of leaders who represent the full spectrum of Canada’s cereals value chain,” said Buth.
