The new President of the Canadian Cattle Association hails from the Parkland.
Tyler Fulton, who runs a cattle operation near Birtle, was named president of the CCA back in March.
Fulton admits his few weeks in the position have been busy, but also exciting.
"It felt like I was being thrown to the wolves a little bit when I took the position in mid-March. We were dealing with the uncertainty related to the tariffs and the trade war, and of course, all of that in the context of the federal election that was just held. So it has been a busy time."
Having served on the CCA board for the past six years, including the last few as Vice President, Fulton says it was a natural step for him to assume the President's position.
