Montana Department of Livestock fills executive post
The Board of Livestock hired Christian Mackay, a real estate agent and feed salesman whose background includes work in the beef industry and the labor movement, to succeed Marc Bridges. Bridges retired at the end of 2006.
Read the rest in an AP story in the Billings Gazette. These little reported things can be critical. Does anyone know about this Christian Mackay?
