Ag reporter to be inducted into Canadian ag hall of fame

Veteran ag reporter Barry Wilson will be inducted into the Canadian Agricultural Hall of Fame in November. Wilson is the Ottawa bureau chief for the Western Producer and has spent more than three decades covering ag issues from Parliament Hill. According to a recent article in The Western Producer, such honour is a rarity: the last (and only other) reporter to be inducted was the late Cora Hind, who wrote for the Manitoba Free Press.
