9 Systemic Exclusion BC Hydro Consultation Process: Kathy Eichenberger, executive director of the Columbia River Treaty review team says: You weren t consulted the first time and we need to make sure we do it right this time. I am asking you to hold us accountable. We have no hidden agenda and every opinion is respected. We will come back at the end and tell you how your recommendations have been handled. We ll present you with really flushed out options. This phase is for us to really understand your interests.

11 DISCUSSION Questions? Policy restraints to upgrading of aging infrastructures may restrain farmers ability to maintain economic livelihoods and food security. Policy recommendations to Canada and the USA to improve local diking structures with strong incentives and capacity building in diking districts that include farmer participation. Potential to foster future dialogue in agricultural policy-making within trans-boundary water treaties.
12 Thank you to the following people: Dr. John Wagner, Supervisor, University of British Columbia, without whose guidance and assistance I could not have conducted research in the Creston Valley of British Columbia UBCO Grant Funding Scholarship to attend the 7th McGill Conference on Global Food Security UBCO Research Grant The Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada Masters 2012/2013 and PhD Research Funding Creston Valley Farmers who donated their invaluable time while conducting research for Dr. John Wagner The invitation from Dr. Hugo Melgar-Quinonez to present my research at the 7 th Annual McGill Food Security Conference is greatly acknowledged and appreciated.
