Benchmark Requirment for Choice Candidates in Upcoming CWB Elections

[parsley]

Any choice candidate should openly state:

"I will openly work towards making sure the required export and interprovincial CWB licenses for wheat and barley will be made available to not only commercial applicants, Eastern farmers, and seed growers, who now enjoy the full benefits of recieving free licenses by having Western farmers pay the costs of them, but automatic licenses will be ALSO issued to Designated Area farmers."

"This goal of marketing fairness in both East and West, will be achieved by working hand in hand with my peers and like minded farmers, to pressure the CWB Minister to give an order to the CWB to issue CWB licenses to all Western applicants."

"Here is my plan of how this will be achieved...."

----------------------------------
If the candidate won't commit, don't vote for him. Any other suggestions?

The present and past CWB directors seem only interested in self-glorification, their pocket books, or using the office as a stepping stone.

Serving is about public duty. About improvement. Like volunteering on the roof of your town's new hockey rink. NOT about self-glorification, their pocket books, or using the office as a stepping stone.

The directors we now disenjoy, show effort that must be non-existent because the results are miserably measurable.

There has been no change.

Farmers cannot afford to pay senile directors snoozing their way through their retirement years.

The only director who is a man of any measure and tried openly and honestly to bring about change is Jim Chatenay.

A letter to PM Harper, signed by five hundred farmers, requesting a new Minister of Agriculture, would benefit a marketing choice vision.

Nothing to lose: We can only trade up, anyhow.

I think any choice candidate should say what you said pars.

An alternative could be...

" I will actively work to ending the entire entity that is the CWB. I understand that if I were to effect change as stated, I will lose my cushy director perks, salary etc., but frankly I don't give a damn, this board which has not worked for decades, has cost western farmers billions over the years, must close up shop in a nation of supposed freedom. The leftists state a woman needs to have the right to "choose" to kill her unborn child. Why not get the left to agree to let western farmers choose to be normal, to have a transparent marketplace, and enable them to have predictable, stable cash flow. All we are asking is for is the right to choose, because now we can't."

Man, I am glad I don't grow wheat. You guys are always chatting about this cwb option, the pro, the bpc, the epo. It is an abomination and a detestable entity that must be ended... Until then I will be happy to only grow wheat for feed for pigs of the porcine kind. Why feed the pigs of the hominid kind who work at the board?

Guys quit feeding the flipping pigs.

where is this letter so I can get my name on it?

The link seems 'dead. So try this:

http://www.cwb.ca/public/en/about/people/board/

tipsy, wouldn't it be useful if someone ultra important like Henry Voss, who, according to the CB website, "..has served on .... the Alberta Branch of the Canadian Seed Growers Association..." would actually lobby the CSG Association to endorse a brand new CWB policy of issuing licenses to everyday, unimportant, mundane farmers like parsley and tipsy?

How novel.

Wonder which course lobbying is taught in. When you peruse the grain companies continual lobbyists' activities, you know a lot of people took that course.

Do you suppose Voss or Neilsen, or any elected director for that matter, would help farmers write the letter, or is it simply too exhausting? Parsley
