Name the ships contest!

[FarmRanger]

With apologies to the creators of Gilligans Island themesong,

Just sit right back and you’ll hear a tale,
A tale of a costly ship.
Before the farmer gets a choice,
His wallet we will pick,
And we don’t care a lick.

Before C619 can get passed,
Deduct another buck a tonne,
So far off the market price now,
It won’t be noticed by anyone,
Won’t be noticed by anyone.

The weather started getting rough,
The prairie crop got tossed,
If not for overselling of a crappy crop,
That buck a tonne it would be lost,
But in propaganda it will be glossed.

<i>A boat is a hole in the water you throw money into.</i>

"Right,Left or centre"

Furrow, You said:
" you right, the liberals and NDP will keep the CWB and try to stuff canola in there as well".

Is there credible evidence to this statement? I'm just asking!

[furrowtickler]

Nothing credible just a gut feeling. Anyway it will be interesting to see where this bill ends up.

[wmoebis]

Furrow;

Put the ENO away! We mushrooms don't grow good when fed it :-)

I don't think that, or a lentil marketing board (LMB) will/should ever happen.

However I do think that the minister of AG/CWB knows more than he lets us know and is not being honest with us about the big picture and direction this or any other, Gov't is taking us.

wmoebis,

Goodale did a superb job of confusing everyone with the CWB becoming a 'mixed' public private corporation.

What is the CWB? A Genetically Modified hybrid that is responsible to no-one... but responsible to regulate itself... with no real accountability to any one but lawyers and CWB managers.

This is nothing but a really bad night mare.

Consider this:

3 Organic directors that represent the 'balance of power' in the CWB... that have voted themselves a dual market and competition to maximise their own grain prices... at the expense of conventional commercial grain growers!

How on earth did these guys even get 'selected' to be CWB Directors?

THis CWB system is an enigma... on top of a socialist dream... on top of a rip off for every commercial conventional grain grower... whether they understand what is happening or not!

For Conventional commercial grain growers... who care one iota about the marketing of their produce... this present CWB system is insane.

The CWB buying ships that I must pay for... and can not use or benefit from... is proof.

Again this is money and votes. Whats more important to our MP`s, ethics or votes? The Conservative`s take us for granted and nobody else seems to care..We need a western Bloc party that actually has our best interests as their focus..

Farmers for Just Me

Since they'll be filled with confiscated grain, they
should be flying a jolly Roger.

Maybe the Black Pearl and the flying Dutchman.

[parsley]

They don't need a name if both ships are tracked on Fintrac's radar. :~()Pars

"Neil and Bob" Good one! LOL

[Fransisco]

Then there's "The pirates who don't do anything"

[fjlip]

We tried that, REFORM PARTY! Would never get elected in Canada due to the eastern bias. Sorry not an option in our lifetime.

[ALLFARMER]

How many years has Harper had to bring this forward? Why is the long gun registry still standing?? Bringing this forward now is such a joke.

Harpers tv ad's of him sitting at his desk late into the night doing paper work another joke.

Him standing up for Canadian? Omar Koddar should have received a fair trial. As a Canadian citizen I don't care what he may have done he deserved a trial. Being a Canadian citizen must mean something, or at least anything.

An election is in the works that is for certain. Time is up for Harper in my view...too little to late!
