    AgStar. you know better then that to pull out that old argument. Getting desperate I see. Railcars are legislated. Its a farmers right to get a producer car. Nothing to do with the CWB. anyways, why should every other farmer subsidize producer cars. Getting 5 or 10 cars delivered to the middle of no where. Do they pay the true cost?

      Everyone take a deep breath and repeat after me "aaa It's all good"

      Such a negative vibe here..

      I thought this thread would have a positive celabratory tone. Can we not give Tom one day to enjoy what he our fellow agriville member has fought so long for. Being granted his decades long wish to sell his own friggin grain.

      My hat is off to you Tom... you fought the long hard fight for agricultural freedom. Olds College ot to put you in their Agriculture hall of fame.

      To the rest of you for one friggin day can you not show your fellow member some respect! really... It's sad the Wheat board BS has gone on for so long. Harper is off to a good start!

          Agstar77,

          I have dreamed of our family farm starting up a flour/processing mill for 20 years.

          Perhaps we will begin setting it up!

          Pour the first footings... Aug 1 2012?!

            BTO,

            I am 4 the CWB being honest.

            I am 4 the CWB providing premium prices.

            I am 4 the CWB providing wise and astute risk management.

            I am 4 the CWB marketing cash grain... every business day of the year.

            I am 4 the CWB providing the OPTION of pooling... to those grain growers willing to contract and take responsibility for the pool... and paying 100 percent of the CWB cost for that pool.

            The CWB COULD have done all these things... in fact had a responsibility to provide all these things... after the 1998 transition.

            The CWB had a RESPONSIBILITY to encourage individual growers to develop premium markets. MAKE the pie bigger... by providing market intelegence and good advice creating prosperity for everyone in the process.

            THESE things are yet to be accomplished. I look forward to being a part of the solution!!!

              Agstar77... I didn't reck one thing at the CWB... you on the other hand... had more chances than you deserved... to transition the CWB into a commercial premium asset for 'designated area' grain growers.

              How about doing your duty... NOW!!!

              Nice try... I am not guilty... it is all too obvious who has a problem with their consience... you do have one... if you listem!!!

              Same with Oberg? Recked Alberta Wheat Pool... now the CWB?

              Wow... what a reference on a job application!!!

              How about you guys doing the RIGHT thing for once!!!?

                      Agstar77,

                      Our family first grew wheat in northern Alberta in 1883. long before the CWB the Canada Grain Act... before the 'Winnipeg futures market' ever traded.

                      Why would I ever want my face on a bag of flour? For wheat purpose?

                      Would you sell CWB grains to a voluntary CWB Agstar77? Burbert?

                      Be honest!
