getting that oil to asia is the best
possible thing we could do.

us dollar hedgonomy is coming to end,and
that will send its value plummeting.

trade goes two ways and one of the
reasons we enjoy such a high quality of
life is the fact we import so many
things from them that we could never
afford to make

cottonpicken: Chinese factory conditions are appalling. If the Chinese produced goods with NA standards of health protection, decent and fair wages, pension provisions and in some cases patent protection in place, they couldn't afford to produce either.

When we buy products made in China we are buying products produced with near-SLAVE labour. Think about it...some one is being USED so that you can enjoy your new LCD display TV or your new Apple computer or your new iphone. NA had factories too but those jobs are OVER there now.

Do you rejoice in those facts?

gregpet: Nobody said that processing couldn't proceed in Canada...The CWB certainly didn't.

Processors wanted cheap grains...well now they can get them...happy now?

[gregpet]

Wilagro are you claiming the grains are cheaper
now? Do you have any evidence?

[cottonpicken]

so their standard of living hasnt been
increasing?

nothing happens overnight but they are
far better off than they were twenty
years ago and twenty from now they will
probably have a higher standard of
living than us

Last I checked, China was a Commie land.
What kinda pinko, wants ta give'm our oil?
It appears that a buncha you marketeers
and chislers are fergettin who yer gonna
be dealin wit. Commie sympathizers are
just as bad as commies themselves.

It was great, and that crew can feed a lot of people with delicious food. Lots of room as the mayfield was definitely outgrown. Left the truck there for all 3 days and used LRT to hotel.

Jerry Dee was soooo funny. Good to see Rick T got the honour for his work for ag.

[perfecho]

Lead by example and then perhaps I will listen...
