"all efforts will be made to find markets for growers with flax "

"Minister Andy Mitchell. “The Government of Canada welcomes this opportunity to build on our collective strengths ....... AAFC is contributing up to $810,000 to this project"

Governments also appointed their people in place.

Never trust a government. They are not there to do FOR you. They are there to DO you. Offense intended. Pars

Hey Pars, good point in your closing comment! Tom
4 should read that into his defence of the efforts of
the Alberta Grain Commission, god, lord over us
forever! Please, please, don't try to turn this into a
CWB thread, it really doesn't matter anymore! I
listened to a nation wide talk show a couple of days
ago, and the question posed was 'should we buy
and support Canadian food supply?' One after the
other responded - I want good and I want cheap, I
don't give a rat's --- where it comes from! Very
disappointing but very revealing. Now let's all go
get our Cheetos and watch 'Survivor', then get up at
five and go to our meaningless jobs and accomplish
in 12 hrs what should have taken 2, and then blame
the Government, who by the way is us.
So, I guess we are our most worst enemy. I'm
making fun here, but I would suggest that to break
out of this Orwellian bubble, we have to turn things
around from top down to bottom up. I just don't
know how to start! Sorry,
Rockpile

AND this to shall pass.

Either work to make the system better serve us... or we will serve it without any right to complain.

It is much easier to get folks to agree... and work together:

Over a cup of coffee and pleasant frank discussions;

Than with a rail road tie and nail gun!
