CWB Rejects Bid by Farmers of North America.

[Klause]

I don't know how they are going to fill it with one pit. They should have 24/7 receiving. On at least 5 am to midnight... sounds like 8 to 5 right now?


Bg that's why we won't ship there unless their cash prices are above other bids... that equity may disappear in a hurry. I.e swp or manitoba pool shares

It'll depend on the house design. There are enough elevators around that it will never run full out anyway.

Not partial to any grain company. Competitive pricing first, friendly service a close second.

Daylate,
Wasnt he the big deal farmer in Hodgeville? Ag ventures 2000 or something like that. Somewhere around 1993 or 1994?

Selling the CWB to the highest bidder is a deal that stinks. Glad it got rejected.

[oneoff]

The next deal will stink even worse.

What former prime minister sat on the board of a grain company?

Which grain company is that?


.......... just connect them.

I think you can figure the front runner for the gift of entering the canadian grain mafia.

Hobby - I dunno about the Ag Venture name but Jim is a Mann from Hodgeville.

no doubt FNA is a little on the greasy side but still dont like the lack of info regarding this cwb sale. Farmers grain is what built the cwb and paid for its assets now they are being sold off without any info available to the public.

bgmd; Absolutely! If the actions today were those of the board of the now defunct model, we would be crying foul, Agriville would be ablaze. However, an unelected board and an unaccountable process is occurring. Producers money, perhaps, rail cars, assets being negotiated and we are all strangely silent... amazing indeed. What was that Nixon said.
