    Is this a human rights issue?

    Is restricting a farmers marketing choice not a human rights issue? There is the right to choose a wheat board or grain company in Ontario and part of B.C, thereby discriminating against western Canadian farmers.
    There is choice allowed in everything else in life in Canada, from the right to vote for who ever you want, all the way to same sex marriage. Everything has been argued as a human rights issue. What do agriville readers think?

    Farmers are denied CWB export/interprovincial permits based upon location.

    How about the same for firearms licensing? Ontario gets, West denied.

    YOU figure it out!

              Ian use to work at the cwb a few years before he went to his farm.He is probably making more being a director than a farmer. Talk to him sometime - he will defend the cwb and the programs they've invented. He makes it clear he knows what is best for all of us. The good news is he's on his last term along with Ritter.

                  McCreary is effective because his leadership present an idea, a solution, an end-result to farmers.


                  Few I agree with, but ideas.


                  He has never indicated he is particularly interested in the color of other people's houses.

                    It is not considered a human rights issue by the cndn courts because we have not entrenched property rights in our charter.
                    SO---you can work all day in the fields,be it wheatfields or cottenfields,and not OWN the fruits of your labour.
                    This is why property is obviously a HUMAN right;if you don't own your work-you don't own your life.
                    You are a slave.
                    Karl Marx said"true communism is simply the absence of private property".
                    Thats the philosophical foundation of the cwb scam.And where alot of its strongest support comes from.
