    Guess which option I accepted today out of SE Sask.

    1) $5.00 feed barley into Manitoba (fob) through a Commodity firm.

    2) $5.00 feed barley through the CWB on a buyback (fob) into the US.

      I wonder who paid for that glossy brochure that I received in the mail this week extolling the "FREEDOM" that the government is soon to bestow on you hard working farmers. What did that cost? Why was it necessary to mail that to every Tom, Dick and Harry in Canada?

      It was also printed in the two "official languages" that somebody believes is the way we should receive all information. That costs us "double" what it should and is wasteful. You "taxpayers" should all be up in arms over this needless expense.

        Got quoted a $1.60/bu above minni futures($9.25) for 14 pro wheat fob minni, FPC just abouve $8.22. Freight would be the same or lower loading my own cars. This 30% pay cut is courtesy the CWB. Enough said.

          The CWB website is bilingual Wil. Maybe you
          should suggest to the next whet Board that they
          scrap the French and forward all French inuqiriea
          to the French Commissioner. Pars

            Good plan parsley, but anything remotely connected with our federal government has to provide service in "the other official language" where warranted and gawd knows where that may be so they have to have it every freakin place to make sure that some itinerant traveler or tourist that comes by and asks a question is answered properly or they will squawk until they get their way.

                I'm new to Agri-ville , a good friend of mine told me about it, so i thought i would check it out.
                Some of you guys and gals should be writing for ag magazines( very well read and capable of marketing decisions ).
                Do any of you farmers know who these backward thinking ,the sky is falling , pro CWB people are ?
                I just cannot believe they are farmers!
                A few years from now ,or maybe sooner we will all look back and say "how could it have taken 70 years to have farmer marketing freedom in Western Canada"
