Federation Supporting "RainY River" Use

It appears the Rainy River Federation of Agriculture won't be trying to stop a company from calling itself "Rainy River Cereal" after all.

The federation was concerned the name gave the impression the product had a connection to the district.

But president Rick Neilson says they've now learned that an individual from the district who is in the process of developing a wild rice cereal is seeking use of the name.

The Toronto address on the application for the trade-mark turned out to be that of his father - a retired lawyer.
