CWB system is padding the pockets of U.S. grain companies

[FarmRanger]

If you were going to build a pasta plant, and you had to pay the CWB a price that included all the transportation to a foreign market, why not just build it in that foreign market if other costs were cheaper there? The system insures that expensive transportation costs are permanently deducted from any price we receive?

= no new pasta plant in Saskatchewan.

Farmers have examined their cash.

We have achieved financially dismality because the status quos supporters:

1. Admit nothing
2. Deny everything
3. Look for a scapegoat.

This type of farmer/director/advisor is of no value to the farmer needing more cash out of agriculture.

We cannot afford more of the same.

Looks like the word of the day award goes to Parsley for 'dismality'.

[agstar77]

Gee and I thought Parsley had found a scapegoat for all the woes of farmers. I can't believe there are no other more pressing concerns than the CWB.

[parsley]

agstar77, this is your motto;

"I can't believe in farmers".

Parsley

[agstar77]

No you certainly don't.

[Fransisco]

I guess you can add one more thing to the list Parsley.

4. Distract from, andor deflect the evidence.

[Fransisco]

So then agstar, you don't have a problem with the CWB selling US companies our grain at fire-sale prices?

[Fransisco]

Why not?

Why does it not concern you?

Are Canadian farmers making so much money that it doesn't matter?

[Fransisco]

Lets look at the malt barley figure of 15 million bushels. We know there is a $1.20u ($55 onne) difference between the Canadian and US price.

That works out to an $18 million dollar gift from Canadian farmers.

For every 10,000 bushels that's $12,000.00.
