Message from the FCSF President

Welcome to the 2026 Friends of Canadian Simmental Foundation Annual Auction. On behalf of the Board of Directors, it is my pleasure to welcome you to beautiful Nova Scotia for this year’s event. We are proud to gather with Simmental breeders, members, and enthusiasts from across Canada in support of a Foundation that continues to invest in the future of our youth, our breed and our industry.

The success of this auction is only possible because of the generosity of our donors and supporters. We extend our sincere appreciation to everyone who has contributed to this year’s sale. A

special thank you goes to the Fisher family for their generous donation of the lot 1 heifer. Their commitment, along with that of all our consignors and sponsors, ensures that the Foundation can continue to make a meaningful impact for years to come.

The Friends of Canadian Simmental Foundation is committed to advancing education, youth development, and breed improvement. Through scholarships and bursaries, we help support the next generation of agricultural leaders, while our continued financial support of the Young Canadian Simmental Association at national events encourages youth involvement and fosters lifelong connections within our industry. The Foundation also remains dedicated to supporting research initiatives that strengthen and promote the Canadian Simmental breed.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the Canadian Simmental Association staff, my fellow Foundation Board members, and the many volunteers whose dedication and hard work make this event possible. Your efforts behind the scenes are instrumental in the continued success of both the Foundation and this annual auction.

As we gather in Nova Scotia, we look forward to another outstanding sale and the opportunity to celebrate the people, friendships, and shared passion that make the Canadian Simmental community so special. Thank you for your continued confidence in the Friends of Canadian Simmental Foundation and for your support of the programs that help shape the future of our breed.

On behalf of the Board of Directors, I wish everyone a successful auction, an enjoyable Canadian Simmental Association Convention and Young Canadian Simmental Association National Classic, and a memorable time in Nova Scotia.

On Behalf of the Canadian Simmental Association we want to welcome you to the annual Friends of Canadian Simmental Foundation (FCSF) fundraiser auction as we head east to beautiful Nova Scotia. Over the years, this event has grown into one of Canada's largest cattle fundraising auctions. The future of Simmental youth, research, and breed development will be directly impacted by the funds raised tonight.

Message from the CSA President

3 Straws - LFE SANGUDO 3017M

Sire: BALAMORE HEMISPHERE

LFE Sangudo 3017M was the $185,000 high-selling black bull from the 2026 Lewis Farms Bull Sale, selected by Canadian Sires + Donors, Deeg Simmental from Lewis Farms as their lead off bull in this years event. A truly impressive young herd sire, Sangudo combines exceptional phenotype, structural correctness, muscle shape, strong feet and herd bull presence with a proven yet outcross pedigree. Exclusivity is important to us and only a few breeders were able to access his genetics this spring so get ahead of the curve and invest with this tremendous opportunity. We are excited about his future impact on the Simmental breed and are proud to support the Friends of the Canadian Simmental Foundation by donating 3 doses of semen from this exciting young sire. Good luck to all bidders!

3 Straws - MRL PIPESTONE 98N 3L

DOB: 21 January 2025

MRL PIPESTONE 98N was the $150,000 high-selling bull who brings it all together and from the moment we laid eyes on him, Pipestone impressed with his striking phenotype, exceptional balance, bold body shape, extra hair, flawless feet, and rich blood-red color, making him one of the most admired bulls of the entire sale season. As impressive as he is visually, his numbers are equally elite. Pipestone ranks in the Top 10% of the breed for BW, CE, WW, YW, MCE, and MWW, Top 20% for Milk and DOC, and an incredible Top 1% for both API and TI, making him a true curve-bending sire capable of adding calving ease, performance, maternal strength, and end-product value. Perhaps his greatest asset is the outstanding cow behind him. His powerful, proven, good looking dam with an exceptional udder has all the qualities we strive to build around, and when combined with his exciting outcross pedigree, Pipestone offers a rare opportunity for progressive breeders looking to move their programs forward. We are proud to support the Friends of the Canadian Simmental Foundation by donating 3 doses of semen on this exciting young herd sire. Good luck to all bidders!

Granite was the 2nd black bull to sell this spring in the Lewis Farms Bull Sale. A calving ease specialist. Granite was purchased by Horner Cattle Co. He has been used on heifers and cows in both the Lewis and Horner programs.

We purchased Memory from Boisvert Simmental at the 2025 Eastern Harvest Sale, and she has exceeded our expectations from the very beginning. As a daughter of Darwin, she offers an exceptionally sound structural design, nearly flawless feet and legs, and a beautiful, well-attached udder. After her first calf this winter, she quickly earned a place in our donor program. Her outstanding maternal qualities, structural correctness, and overall production potential made that decision an easy one. The Spartacus × Raptor cross has been extremely successful for us. A prime example is BILJ Pol Jamie 31J, the standout of our 2023 Rod & Stars Simmental Bull Sale. Purchased by Semex, Jamie has gone on to become one of the highest-selling Fleckvieh sires in the world over the past few years. With that proven success in mind, breeding Raptor to this moderate-framed, dark red, powerfully muscled granddaughter of Spartacus was a mating we believed offered tremendous genetic complementarity. We are excited about the consistency, maternal strength, and herd bull potential this flush has to offer. Stored at DMV GenetiQ Services (Evolygen) Québec

Saskatchewan born Jordan Eberle was drafted by the Oilers 25th overall in 2010 and emerged as one of their go to guys. In his first NHL game, Eberle scored a highlight reel shorthanded goal that would later be voted Goal of Year by NHL fans. As a sophomore in the NHL, Eberle racked up 76 points in 78 games. He was nominated for the Lady Byng Memorial Trophy and the NHL’s most gentlemanly player. Eberle is perhaps best known for his performances at the World Junior Hockey Championship. At the 2009 Tournament, with Canada down a goal and facing elimination in the semi-finals to Russia, Eberle 5.4 seconds left to tie the game and eventually force a shootout, in which he scored and Canada defeated Sweden to win the Gold Medal.
