    P.M. at Kindersley

    Prime Minister Harper officially opened the wheat and barley markets today in Kindersley. Huge crowd, lots of M.P.s, senators and M.L.A.s. Ritz, Anderson and the hosts, the Waldes, put on a great event. Classy touch on P.M.s part, he publicly pardoned all involved in the border running from years back. Afterwards, the lineup to shake the P.M.s hand was 10 times longer then the lineup for beef on a bun. What a way to spend day 1.

    It absolutely was a classy act to pardon the individuals convicted it the past.

    It boggles my mind that individuals were charged for selling their own grain in
    the first place, something I don't think the liberals should have lived down.

    It was a huge event to mark a great milestone in history.

    So I saw parsley, bduke, tom4cwb, who else was there?

      It was a fabulous day. There was such a spirit of
      good will and celebration in the air. And so many
      friends who have worked together for years and
      years to pave the way for marketing choice were
      able to celebrate together. Nobody cared about
      eating as much as they wanted to visit, and
      recall and enjoy each other. Pars

        I met quite a few AV'ers. And that was so so
        enjoyable. A couple of chuckles on that item
        though.... HFL was looking for a woman wearing
        a purple blouse and found one who was, but
        unfortunately more than one woman wore purple.
        He did find me eventually but we had a good
        laugh.

        And I did meet bucket, he surprised the heck out
        of me when he asked if I was Parsley, and now
        I know why I enjoy him so much on AV. A
        bonus...he is a mighty fine looking dude. Pars

                    Thanks, sorry about Art I sat on a commitee with him years ago and I was much younger and he wasn't so I wondered if was around to see today. Makes one realise there were a lot of farmers that didn't live to see today.
