Biographical history
The Royal Oak War Agricultural Committee (later the Saanich Peninsula Farm Labour Committee) was formed in 1943 in response to a shortage of farm labour on the Saanich Peninsula during World War II. It was to be a Dominion and provincially-subsidized emergency farm labour service. Its headquarters was at Saanich Municipal Hall and its first chairman was H.C. Oldfield, who held the position for many years. The group changed its name to the Saanich Peninsula Farm Labour Committee in 1962. The committee ceased operations in 1975.
