About one hundred women, members, employees and friends, from the three host cooperatives, took part with great enthusiasm.\r\n\r\nThe delicate balance between work and family<\/em>\r\n\r\nThe day began with the conference \" Balancing work, family and well-being in agriculture\", presented by Mrs. Nathalie Tanguay, agr., M.Sc., coach and organizational development consultant, which was very well appreciated. Ms. Tanguay provided participants with practical advice on how to achieve happiness, while emphasizing the importance of establishing personal goals.\r\n\r\nThis conference was followed by a delicious lunch from Le Coureur des Bois, featuring a soup of leeks, a top of guinea fowl leg, mushrooms, miso sauce and a tasty maple dessert.\r\n\r\nIn the afternoon, Ms. Dani\u00e8le Sauvageau, coaching mentor, held a conference on the commitment to sustainability. Dani\u00e8le Sauvageau was the first woman to lead the Canadian women's ice hockey team to a historic victory at the Salt Lake City Winter Olympics in 2002. She spoke about the importance of being there for others, but also being there for yourself. The participants seemed particularly moved by Ms. Sauvageau's speech, inviting them not to be afraid to take their place in a predominantly male environment.\r\n\r\nThe organizing committee of the Women's Cooperative Forum presented a donation of $500 to Earth Day, the equivalent of $5 per participant. The symbolic cheque was presented to Ms. Val\u00e9rie Mallamo, Executive Director of Earth Day Canada.\r\n\r\n\"\"\r\n
