De Pape vs Hursh on CWB Ships

[Fransisco]

Looks like Shaun has drank the kool-aid.

The CWB must be tempting him with an 'adscam' payment... just like most of the other farm media already sold out for!

Sorry... 'TalkingEskimo' again!

Francisco and Tom. You guys are off base with Shaun's comments.

I don't see Shaun as "drinking the kool-aid". I don't see him as preaching the condescending truth. I believe he is beginning debate. pretty simple.

I agree that the ships are a foolish investment. I believe that the CWB has a lot more to gain for farmers by working on how they market the grain. Also on how they allow farmers to make decisions for each of their own businesses.

Savings on logistics that may bias the CWB on how they ship grain in the future is not wise and not good business in my opinion.

Lifer,

"As you have heard me say before when the CWB is in the headlines, farmer’s brain’s leak out of their heads. Whether you are pro or anti CWB, it is hard to argue with the raw business numbers of this purchase."

If Shaun had to pay over 5 figures into buying these two ships... over the next 4 ears... perhaps he would be having a 'brain leak' as well.

If this was not an insult... what was it meant to be... a complement???

Lifer... I saw no redeeming respect for any of my property rights in that article... by Shaun... only disrespect for my family and community.

Shoot Judgement & undeserved insults at us... expect something in return.
