Ottawa Journal by David Tilson MP — Fall fairs coming soon to Dufferin-Caledon

One of the first signs of the fall season is the number of annual fall fairs taking place all across Dufferin-Caledon.
We are most fortunate to have five excellent fairs occurring throughout the month of September. They showcase the best of our riding's agricultural sector and are fantastic family-friendly events which offer something for every age group. It's also a terrific opportunity to show our support for the outstanding agricultural societies who work hard to serve our community.
