I wonder if Kyle or this group is paying for his website.

Bill Gehl of the NFU is this years head of the CWB Alliance.

[jdepape]

For what its worth, I sent an email to www.cwbafacts.ca.

They have not yet responded.

Funny - I don't even know who they are. For all I know it may not even be someone connected to farming - it could be a grain company or a government bureaucrat.

Huh. Go figure.

And I've read more of the website. They have some interesting ideas but there is so much that is factually wrong I really have little confidence in any of it. Pity.

If you're really interested call Bob Roehle. His fingerprints are all over this. Not that he has any skin in the game or anything. Other than maybe his CWB pension or future Liberal appointments (Good luck with that Bob!)

@Kodiak
For heavens sake don't scare the employee's.
Their pensions are not at risk!

Although dead wood will be trimmed. All for the health of the corporation of course.
and
Consultant positions will be dramatically reduced, at least until they get grain marketing under control.
Maybe once they have done that, they can start to play policy, like any other business.

BTW I hear Bob Rohl is with MCGA. Manitoba growers can ask for their checkoff back, OR get someone good to run and take MCGA back from the socialists

Holy cow, the people that have anything to do with cwbafacts ought to be looking for a rubber room.

Pure nonsense.

Farmers have completely changed the way they approach farming and plain and simply, the cwb is not keeping up.

If they don't change the new generation, that they ignore, will quickly put them out of their misery.

What the cwb does not understand is the young generation will have the support of the older generation that watched their sons or tenants make their own farms more prosperous.

The changes the under 50 year olds adapted have lead to a better western canada. Too bad the cwb doesn't have that leadership.

[cchurch]

Yeah the so called "changes" that have happened in farming have screwed the farmers.

How much more change do you want?

[Kodiak]

Oh, and of course Anders Bruin, who in addition to Roehle, is another very disgruntled ex CWB employee.

church, you should seek these people out and you can have yourself a very fulfilling session of highly negative discussion. Together you can blame eveyone else for your misfortune and your lot in life.

Better yet, seek professional help. I'm serious. If I had your attitude, I'd be suicidal.

[JDGreen]

cchurch please explain this so called change??

[cchurch]

Who said anything about being negative.

I love paying $9 per pound for canola seed.

I love having to haul grain 100's of miles by road instead of rail.

I love paying what ever Agrium wants to charge for fertilizer.

It's all great.

Where can I sign up for your next gimmick to decrease my bottom line?

[gregpet]

"Where can I sign up for your next gimmick to decrease my bottom line?"

Sign a CWB permit book, deliver your grain and hope for the best

[Fransisco]

Start growing durum. Then dig yourself a big hole to bury it in cause the CWB won't take it.

[bucket]

And lets not forget those things happened while the cwb, the farmers advocate, stood idly by because they were busy getting famers arrested.

How about wheat seed, that we pay the research costs on, costing 20 bucks a bushel.

How about the fact that the cwb can not exist without grain companies so the cwb allows them to tear out elevators. The cwb was pretty quiet on elevator consolidation.
