About CKSA
The rapid growth of the Katahdin sheep industry in Canada
has necessitated the formation of the Canadian Katahdin Sheep Association
(CKSA) at a producer orientated level.
To attain credibility as a Canadian represented breed, the
CKSA is incorporated under the terms, conditions and high standards as set
out by the Animal Pedigree Act of Canada and the Animal Registrations
Branch of Agri Food and Agriculture Canada. (Incorporated March 17, 1995).
The Canadian Livestock Records Corporation Inc. (CLRC) has
been selected as the official Katahdin Registry for the CKSA.
The CKSA is designed to have representatives from all the
Canadian provinces and territories... a concept that allows for input from
all areas, to address issues of concern and expansion of the Katahdin
Sheep industry. Co-operation and unification has been the foundation upon
which the strong, stable growth and formation of the CKSA has been
based... a direction for continued development. |
