The Conservative Member of Parliament for Elgin-Middlesex-London backs the Ontario Corn Producers Association regarding the long-term feasibility of corn-based ethanol.
Joe Preston praised the productive nature of Canadian agriculture.
He is confident Ontario farmers are able to satisfy demands created by expansion of the corn-based ethanol industry.
Preston represented the federal government at the recent opening of the IGPC ethanol production facility in Aylmer.
He suggests that domestic and US ethanol expansion efforts are a development worth supporting.
