    Grassfarmer...

    OK...following your logic... we come to...

    If in cattle breeding there is/was a problem... that justifies the CWB monopoly today?

    What is your point?

      (a) "keeper" includes any person who owns, harbours or has the custody or control of a bull;


      (b) "prohibited area" means area within the boundaries of any agricultural society and any other part of the Province that is declared by the Governor in Council to be a prohibited area for the purposes of this Part;


      (c) "pure-bred bull" means bull registered in a herd-book kept or recognized by the Department;


      (d) "scrub bull" means bull which is not registered in a herd-book kept or recognized by the Department. R.S., c. 6, s. 47.

      48 (1) The keeper of a bull shall not allow the bull to run at large after the bull is eight months old.


      Manner of confinement

      Permit to serve cow

      50 (1) Where it is made to appear to the president or secretary of an agricultural society that it is impracticable for a person owning a cow within the boundaries of the society to procure the services of a pure-bred bull, the president or secretary may issue a permit in writing authorizing the keeper of a scrub bull to allow such bull to serve the cow.

      an addendum to gf


      It appears, not that very long ago, as if you left behind what you wholesomly rejected,(otherwise you would not be in Canada). But keep in mind that you draw from and recollect from from a knowledge base of the rejected, of what you didn't like.

      Canadian farmers who have had the opportunity of drawing from positive intergenerational experience in this country can be a good resource for you to learn from.

      In other words gf, don't expect to immigrate here, arbitrarily decide you know the best way to run agriculture in Canada, and expect a lot of fourth and fifth generations farmers to goosestep to your tractor.

        yeah grassfarmer! we expect people like you to know your place. don't step out of line or think any of your experience has taught you anything. you just sit back and watch the rest of us and you'll learn a lot. maybe not what we think you're learning. lol. canadian regulations that produced the dwarf cattle must have been very powerful because american cattle were of the same stature. parsley i guess your divorce from reality is final, huh? rotflmao.

          The jensend Gems that will save farming:

          1. If you don't like the CWB leave.

          2. G8 citizens are all almost fascist.


          3. Marketing without the CWB is hard.

          4. East Germany visit classifies you as world-traveller.

          5. USA is top fascist country in the world.

          You must be a positive, fun guy.

          Jeez.

            the parsley gems:

            everything that parsley doesn't agree with is wrong and evil and is the fault of the cwb.

            the united states is the greatest nation on earth and has no faults and anybody not from here knows nothing and has nothing to offer.

            parsley doesn't have to know anything to have an opinion. she also doesn't have to address issues just make snide comments.

            parsley needs new meds.

              jensend Gems simply reflect what you wrote. I just didn't let you away with them, I returned them.


              I think I addressed most issues you asked about, but you just wanted to move on to the next and the next, and then declare moving as the final solution.

              I noticed you put nothing positive on the table for a conversation to build upon.

              You don't want to pull up the best in people, jensend, and build from their best.

              It is what it is.


              A good example of why I need choose my own business partners.

                A question for you jensend,

                What were the key points you learned about life by visiting East Germany?

                  That was hilarious Parsley, the articles you posted were all about protecting the integrity of purebred cattle versus allowing scrub bulls to propagate. So some forward thinking chaps went to Europe with a plane and imported the exotics. The exotics weren't scrub bulls though - they were bred for many, many generations of recorded purebred cattle with stricter rules than you posted here.
                  And the irony is today that most of the cattle in North America are effectively scrub cattle with all the crossbred bulls being used. No wonder the quality of cattle and beef has been falling steadily for the last 40 years. So I guess you chose to back the wrong side on this issue too.

                  Still... I guess you are ahead of TOM he still thinks that it's me bringing forth the comparison of cattle breeding and the CWB....

                    For many years, all cowherds were required to use a purebred bull.

                    Consequently, many bulls which should have been culled, were not culled. They were valued highly, monetarily.

                    Dwarf calves started showing up. It was a problem in the sixties.

                    I believe the earlier legislation was a precursor to the ammended I posted. I didn't have time to search. (It wasn't an article gf, it was an excerpt from legislation.)

                    Scrub bulls were not to be used.

                      parsley i learned strict govt. control doesn't work. since then i've also figured out strict control by anybody doesn't work. i've also figured out, as have many if not most, no form of govt. is perfect. observation will teach anybody that economies and forms of govt. evolve. you're the one with the closed mind.
