Wpg rally

[malta]

Mustardman when you say you didn't bother going because "whats the point", now you know why many of did't vote in the rigged survey. Whats the point. The voting list was rigged. I spent my time supporting the duly elected government to get rid of the monopoly.

In those pictures all I see is wealth consumption.

[jdepape]

mustardman - a 14 hr bus ride is too much sacrifice to fight for your share of $500 million a year?

If I was a farmer that believed this was truly about losing roughly $25 per acre year after year, or fighting to keep $25 per acre year after year - I'd be there in a flash.

That's my point - the truly committed souls just aren't out there.

(Perhaps they're smart enough to realize the $500 million is just a load of BS.)

[Jfreedom]

You have some cheese to go with that whine
Mus Turd you board lovers were all so self-
righteous when people went to jail for selling
their own grain . Paybacks a bitch

[highwayman]

mustard, this government is listening to the exact group they should be. The group that put them in office, people that support freedom for farmers. Its just not your group.

[redbaron]

Good thing the 8 amigos (cwb directors) have the pool
to pay for their law suit. If the rally is any indication.
They certainly would never collect enough from their
supporters.

[Burbert]

Lets see, its Fall, Winter is pending.
Harvest nearly all complete, framers a wee
bit tired, still lots ta do, checking bins
etc., signing contracts, markeetering etc.
Travel to Winnipeg, always a good choice
fer a holiday. Yup, me too wondering why
more didn't show up. Butt wait, didn't we
just have a pleb and voted to retain the
cwb! F@#k a holiday in Winnipeg.......

[FarmRanger]

If I thought that the government was actually going to cost me and other farmers $500 million, I would have been there.

As it is, the phoney plebiscite that diluted my vote with no-skin-in-the-game-non-farmers, is rightly being ignored. Real farmers are tired of their property rights being trampled (in western Canada anyway), so we're not going to show up at pro-tyrany rallies funded with our stolen pool monies.

[mustardman]

No Farmranger You would NOT have Been there. Your side has a hard time organizing a two car parade.

Let's face our generation has Never Fought for anything.
Everything our fathers and grandfathers fought to build is being torn down and our generation simply tries to rationalize it.

Mustardman
My father and grandfather never fought for the right to dictate to their neighbors how they should run their farms. They fought for the right to work with others who shared the same goals and vision. They also fought for the right to run their farms to the best of their ability. They also recognized that what was right for their farm was not necessarily right for everyone. Once the next generation had proved themselves they were willing to allow them to make the appropriate decisions recognizing that we have moved pass the plow and the threshing machine.
