I'm a gut feeling guy. And fna buying cwb doesn't sit right with me. to my knowlege Mr. Mann has unresolved business in our area with a few farms he briefly rented from years and years ago.

Would you haul to it from here? How much of a premium would you need/want to haul that far from here?

They pay a per ton dividend. So I will have a share in the new cwb. As a business mind I may sell at par or less just to gain ownership. What would you do?

Viterra Humboldt 33,130t(before expansion-16,500t)
CWB Colonsay 42,000t

They better start adding steel bins. The concrete standing there now will never hold it. Heck the one contractor rep I talked to there said 9700 mt.


I'll grab some pics when going past... must be steel bins going up.


Hopper I only care about money in my pocket. Owning shares in an elevator company has historically gone very badly for Canadian farmers... I.e. The pools.

[farming101]

Yes, about 24,000 tonne steel

[Klause]

That would make sense. Thanks!

Concrete section is 17,300t
Loop track. Guessing their plan is unit trains and keep 'em coming.

This whole cwb privatization stinks, nobody knows any numbers on what the cwb balance sheet looks like. Cwb is supposedly up for sale but the details arent available? I firmly believe farmers equity in the cwb is being transfered to a private corp behind closed doors.
