RealAg Radio, Dec. 6: "Anti-animal language," and StatsCanada production, export reports

Without giving away too much, RealAg Radio host, Shaun Haney, starts off the show with a tweet from PETA asking people to take into account speciesism when they speak on a daily basis. Let’s just say, even with a commercial break, news lead, Jessika Guse couldn’t contain her laughter.
