High HRS and Durum prices a Myth in Western Canada!

Better country will be built by individuals talking to each other not by Politicos. Just takes the will to negotiate and not expect you will get everything you as an individual might like , but with what everybody can live with. Accomdation compromise not appeasement. In other words you may not get all you want the exact way you want it.

Why do the columnists,mostly self proclaimed professionals, never delve into the recent rural election results? Only Manitoba has has remained left of center politically, and not in the rural ares. The CWB debate has been a part of the last three Provincial elections....and all strongly supporting the Choice candidates in the rural ridings. I think Parsely is correct, politics is driven by the media, which are urban centric, very unknowledgeable about complex policies...grain, trade, finance,etc. They are very aware that controversy is "good copy" and sells the product of which their livelyhood depends upon. But professioal? honourable? credible?....just like the politicians they follow. Talk about a symbiotic relationship!....Like Parsley says....the ones we trust...Bill

Did you put a hand out in Regina, agstar?


Did I?


Parsley

[agstar77]

Was'nt there but I am willing to shake hands with anyone as long as they don't bite it!

[parsley]

Biting you, agstar?

Ah, er, ah, that's a...er,... revelation.


Certainly if you were taking me out to dinner, I wouldn't bite, because I could not bite the hand that feeds me.

However, f you are having a reoccurring biting problem, that you have surprisingly revealled online, I presume either you are extremely snarly, or attract biters, or both, or else your hands are exceptionally tasty.

[agstar77]

There seems to be a lot of biters here.

[parsley]

Yes. They have taken such a big bite out of yours and the CWB's single-desk logic, there remains little reasoning and logic left standing that can attract young farmers.


Young.


You must have noticed the youg farmers in Regina.

They don't want your ideology, agstar.

Parsley

[agstar77]

Yes, to be young and foolish again. To be easily misled by false profits( pardon the pun)

[agstar77]

Yeah,Nielsen from the WBG is probably still in diapers, he's so young!

Any comments about the Alberta election? Will note the 2 political parties that supported retention of the status quo CWB didn't elect one candidate in rurual Alberta.

Interesting that recently elected governments in 2 provinces and represent 90 % of western Canadian barley production support Ritz's efforts. Their base of support is rural.
