    Forage,

    Read my post in this light then... the first part a suggestion... the redneck portion after... was saying "NEVER'

    Who is in charge...does not stop some EC folks from being radicals...

    Alert:

    We Crop farmers Met yesterday about the MANY changes being brought forward by AB Gov Depts in AB;

    1) AB ND's very to change AB Labour Employment Standards.... as we were told farmers are done being exempt from paying and treating farm workers fairly;

    2) AB ND's very likely to implement OH/S technical rules and eliminate our previous OH/S AB safety workplace exemptions for farms; as farmers kill and seriously injure farm workers at a unacceptably high rate;

    3) WCB worker compensation mandatory exemptions for worker injurys on farm are very likely to end... (AB can't trust farmers/private insurance and the courts to protect AB farm workers) as there are 53,000 AB farms that 'need' and therefore must be gov. regulated... (Gov knows best)

    4) AS farms can not be trusted to be fair to AB farm workers they employ by themselves (even if only a very few bad farm operators give bad optics); farms require Gov. Mandatory Regulatory oversight) AB Government will force ABfarms into enter into the 21 Century;

    5) ABFarm workers must have the right to organize into unions... as previous union exemption organizing rules are unethical/unconstitutional...

    The Gov. Riot Act has been read. AB Farms will change.
