Ontario offers a wide range of different breeding programs. There are small, specialized herds, and larger well established herds. Ontario boasts some of the most consistent and high quality show animal breeding programs in the country. Ontario bred animals consistently place very high on the Canadian National show level. Ontario also has a large number of more commercially driven purebred breeders. They are sending high quality Shorthorns into progressive crossbred cow calf operations yielding tremendous results.
The OSA holds the Fall Classic Sale every October. This sale tries to meet the needs of every breeder. The Fall Classic Sale offers high quality, commercial type purebreds as well as very high quality show prospects. The OSA also takes part in a Shorthorn sale at the RAWF most years. This is a smaller, but very high quality sale.
The most prestigious show in Ontario is the RAWF in November in Toronto. This is a Shorthorn show that attracts only the very top Shorthorns from Ontario. It is also well attended by herds from provinces east of Ontario making it the largest and highest quality Shorthorn show in Eastern Canada. The RAWF hosts the Canadian National Show every third year. The RAWF is one the largest and most prestigious agricultural exhibition in the world making it a very popular destination for international visitors.
