thalpenny,
On the feed wheat and the CWB, I thought the CWB has said that they are here to maximise my returns, isn't that right?????
Now if you are there to make me money, then why wouldn't you sell my feed wheat interprovincially to a Canadian feed user, and get that higher return an include it in the contract you offer me?
Wouldn't it be great if the CWB competed against the WCE futures and drove them up by doing so??
If we all sold our domestic feed wheat and barley to the CWB, you could extract a real premium price, couldn't you???
Why do you instead include a discount option for yourselves that allows you to extract even more money from the $30-$40/t discounts you already offer on feed wheat?
What in the CWB Act and Regs prevents you from instead maximising our returns by handling a sustantial portion of the feed wheat grown in western Canada, and extracting a premium for it rather than discount pricing it severely?
Just what is the CWB's mandate, and how do I reconcile what you say to what you actually do in reality????
Now when I could take my "lower" grades of Canadian wheat, and get top grade in the US, plus a premium price,
but,
you force me to give back the higher price to the pooling system through the buy-back.
Why when the CWB could create competition, like on feed wheat and barley, you refuse???!!!
Why would you if your sole purpose is to maximise my returns???
