    Will 200000 tonnes a week west cut it.?

    Latest reports show only 200000 tonnes getting shipped west for the week....

    With 2.5mmt of vessel space and 51 percent space at port .....does no farm group think it's worth a call to see wtf is going on?

      First, I will say that this is terrible performance for this time of year. So don't get me wrong.
      However check your numbers. Notice the Primary/Process shipments total 487,400 for week 17. Also the total received at Pacific ports totals 445,400(in red at the very bottom).
      The number reported for tonnes on rail is what is counted up on report day. It does not include the total amount shipped or received at port for the whole week. Still a dismal performance. Why can't Grain Monitor issue a press release when the job is obviously not getting done in a timely fashion?

          Well after 31 days at Prince Rupert the MAJULAH SINGAPURA is on her way to the Philippines with a cargo of wheat. It is estimated it will sail across the Pacific in 21 days arriving in Iligan City on Dec 27

          Either wheat is in short supply in Canada or Prince Rupert is so pleasant that no one wants to leave.
          Don't know what other reason there would be for taking so long to get a ship on its way

              It's called backing up the system so no one has to bid on grain....

              You have elevators looking for grain to fill their book into Feb-Mar time frame but boats waiting on west coast? ?????


              It's only 5 trains to fill a boat from facilities that clean on the prairies. ....straight into a boat since it's already graded when the train is loaded....

                Look at what is happening in Russia and Ukraine etc with help from China and the Russian Gov. Look at South America and again tell me how the Ponzi scheme we have in Canada is working.

                Were getting handed our lunch and most cant see it.

                    Wk 19 Dec 4-11:Ship count dropping, now 29. Still one or two ships in port longer than 15 days. 17 ships cleared port at west coast in wk 19
                    Wk 18 Dec 3-10: Good railcar numbers into Vancouver(5300), bad railcar numbers into Pr Rupert(747)

                      5300 cars x 95 tonnes equals 503000 tonnes.....there is 1.8mmt in boats....that's 4 weeks of rail shipping if the railways actually hit half million tonnes a week....and that also is assuming quorums numbers are correct....and that's ?????.....


                      I say everyone sits on their hands and waits for another 2013 fiasco .....but I won't say I told you so....because the indicators were there months ago....ffs....

                            It ****ing well should be graded if it's been cleaned onto a train....there should be no regrading after a 10 day rail trip....

                            That's bullshit in this day and age. ...

                              And nobody gives a shit, just send the costs/demurage/dockage to the DUMB farmers, they have to pay or go broke. Biting the hand that feeds the economy....
                              Wonder what Putin would do???? just make the problem people disappear...
