Gen. Jennie Carignan was a little emotional on Thursday as she spoke to reporters about what it means to take over command of the Canadian Armed Forces. 

It's an honour that felt like the natural next step in her career, she said, something she's worked toward for the last 38 years. It also means, for other women or marginalized people, that "it's possible, folks — the door is open."

"This is actually what my parents used to tell me: 'Anything is possible. You can do anything,'" she said.

The AGI booth at Ag in Motion is easy to find with it's large 16 foot mixed flow grain dryer on display.

On top of that dryer is AGI's new patent pending pre-cleaner for their NECO or AGI mixed flow grain dryers.

The pre-cleaner attaches to the grain dryer and removes any unwanted debris, such as beeswings, fines, and chaff from the grain before it enters the dryer.

Ron Kleuskens, a technical sales rep for AGI in Canada says the pre-cleaner system was in development last year and did some pretty extensive testing on farms.

Amos 5:14-15, 24 

The old prophet Habakkuk wrote relevant words of truth when he put this down in the first chapter of his prophecy: "Yes, destruction and violence are before me; strife exists and contention arises. Therefore the law is ignored and justice is never upheld. For the wicked surround the righteous; therefore justice comes out perverted" (Habakkuk 1:3-4).

The writer of those words died centuries ago, but oh, how his words live on! If you are even slightly aware of everything happening in the world around us, you know how up-to-date his words really are.
