For instance,

What can the canadian canola council do in regards to the chinese canola dumping allegations against canada?

Any govt in power would follow what the usa did ... 100% tarriff against chinese evs... regardless of what they may or may not say ( the easiest thing in govt is to be the opposition party).
so how exactly does canola council ... help in his situation?

A sternly written letter to........

Uhh..


china?


Hey Xi,

SINCERELY,


Canada canola

2 cents, no answers.
Maybe a division of research and advocacy.
We have no power in the Senate as do our Southern neighbors.
We seem to have the same old variety research blah blah, public better yada yada and no lobby power.
Pay industry more for research. ?.
Pay lobbyists far more. ?
Think NRA.
I'm happy paying appropriately if they would wake up.

Trash me all you like.
I have a relate who has built a successful N.A. company specializing in govt liaison work for a select industry with large players.
I'm sure he's not cheap. But if they want a new product registered they hire him. He has known all the people behind the politicians for 35 years.
Would you pay his fees if you got results?
Question. How many hillbilly hick farmers play private courses with MPs or CEOs?
Our minds may never leave our little farms but the products we rely on selling sure as hell do.
Everything is about politics.
Think research on GMO wheat was well spent without political will?
Bitch to a reporter about any regulation be it transportation antiquities or chem registry. See how far it gets you.
We have to spend money to make it and some will make more than others.
But no. We keep reading the same articles in the same newspapers for 50 years. We bitch about the same damn things. Nothing changes because we do nothing different.
We thought we had the CWB do it for us and look where that got us.
I merely think we need to evolve.
Which is polite speak for grow up.

And maybe just maybe if we accept that someone might make more money than us, we could start to agree on policy. We are our own worst enemies.

If the NRA's annual income averages $1 per citizen.
Why aren't we spending $35M a year?
What's in the WGRF?
What's it used for?
Oh right, another wheat variety that takes 10 years to develop that no one wants to pay for.

Nitrogen fertilizer regulations will increase. (Prairies only)
Wetlands of less than 1 acre will be protected. (Prairies)
Glyphosate will be restricted or banned. Carbon tax will increase with no recognition of sequestration. Yup, prairies only.
Export sales remain private.
We can't load ships in the friggin rain.
Yet we jealously fondle ourselves over new paint. Fixate on not paying for genetics. And let Ottawa be Ottawa.
They should instead be afraid of us.
What price would you put on that?

[blackpowder]

Perhaps more bang for the buck spent in Edmonton and Regina than Ottawa?

And to the original post. The deadlines are posted. Get your refund claim in. With a clear reasoning.

[GOODRUM]

I have issues with what they do and have occasionally asked for a refund with a clearly stated reason.
What would you replace them with?

Like my Grandpa used to say “trade it for a yellow dog and then shoot the dog”

why replace them?

Resolutions get passed at AGMs and never acted on. Have we heard about export sales lately - nope.
