    fed budget

    Why would this be interesting or relevant to agriculture?

    If you don't wish to read about Ms. Jordan's trip then, simply don't read it. We don't need all your negative crap on here.

      ms. jordan is the spokesperson for Monsanto.
      She is the farmers BFF.
      Industry wants to make her more personable so
      Monsanto can sell more product. Its all about
      perceptions and marketing.
      I think its very clever and she has every right to
      blog. Freedom of speech.

        chuck.
        Ms. Jordan is a well known individual in the agriculture industry and is personally known by probably quite a few who read this site, including myself. She is a passionate advocate for our industry, so a friend to all of us because of that. I am interested in her posts from Sochi. I can't be there, so to get a "glimpse" through a colleagues eyes is interesting.
        So, like Southpaw says, stuff it. Go read [URL="http://www.cpcml.ca/"]this website[/URL]. I'm sure it'll be more to your taste.

          Oh, or how about sponsoring Cmdr Chris
          Hadfield to speak at FarmTech. What a
          travesty and manipulation eh chuckchuck.

          Or how about $150,000 in grant money
          distributed to 60 rural communities
          applied for by farmers across Canada?
          Pure evil at its worst.

          There are some positives, but sometimes
          you just have to look a slightly
          different direction.

            Nothing in the budget for agriculture expect more food inspectors to make sure the food Canadians eat is safe. (Does that mean Canadians should now be worried that it may not be and unsafe food is getting out there)

            Glad to see the governments concern about getting our products to market and the lines in the budget about investing in new Detroit Windsor link and further study of east oil pipeline BUT not one mention of improving rail or grain movement. Maybe government hopes farmers can use the 10 mil they are putting into snowmobile trails for movement of grain off the prairies.

                    The highlights seem like a lot
                    of fluff to shake their
                    reputation of pandering to big
                    business. Ironic that they
                    want to get in the face of
                    phone companies and banks but
                    have no interest in making a
                    difference on things that
                    matter such as rail.
