Merrickville sheep farmer Doug Savage,
west of Kemptville, with his guard llama, Carmello, and flock of 250 ewes
and 500 lambs, says hes heard about dissatisfaction with the Ontario
Sheep Marketing Agency but says hes not overly critical. Some sheep
farmers, however, are livid with their marketing agency and want to opt
out of paying licencing fees. (Dave da man
