Well a step in the right direction.
"It's time for the wheat board to make a buck for Canadian farmers and to quit fiddling around in the political game," Strahl said.
The minister made his announcement at a staged rally west of Winnipeg. Farmers who oppose the wheat board's current monopoly on international wheat and barley sales surrounded him.
I liked the STAGED comment. Duhhh, maybe it was just farmer's who actually agree with the decision coming out to show their SUPPORT?
"You either have single-desk selling or you have don't have a CWB and they have presented no evidence that would counter that contention," said Mark Wartman, Saskatchewan's agriculture minister, in the vote's wake.
"Clearly, the majority of farmers are not buying that nonsense about dual-marketing."
Is Saskatchewan's agriculture minister really that much of a communist that he truly believes a monopoly, is a good thing? If the CWB is such a good thing, make it mandatory for eastern farmers to sell only to the CWB too. So, it's okay to throw western Canadian farmers into jail but eastern Canadian farmers can sell to who ever they want? One farmer went to jail for GIVING some of HIS grain to a 4H club in Montana.
"This issue is probably bigger than the Canadian Wheat Board, when you step back and look at it. And if you aren't free to speak out, what kind of country do we have?" Measner told CTV Winnipeg.
Hello, do you not even see the hypocrisy? Force farmers to jail for not selling to the CWB, but, when you get fired, it's a freedom of speech issue???? Come on, no wonder you were fired.
What about farmer's freedom to sell the wheat they produce on their own farms, to whoever they want to sell it to?
Communism, right here in Canada, I'm not making it up, I'm not allowed to!!!
