Is this the general thought?

[checking]

I'm hearing that the older guys are saying "let's get the inch rain that's forecast, and get the year over with. I don't care any more." Young guys are pulling their hair out, and say they have to seed.

Also hearing there is a demand for small airseeders to go with all the big tractors out there.

The "visage" we saw election night of a Prime Minister truly humbled, and grateful for the confidences of Canadians made me very proud to be a Conservative!

This is a man who did not go into politics to line his own politics, or to be on a podium with great fan fair, but because he believes he will leave this country better by his service.

And I believe he will. I welcome incrementalism.

[haveapulse]

sorry meant to say... Line his own pockets.. but I suppose politics applies too! Now get seeding and off the darn computer!

[haveapulse]

I am told in North Dakota that if you crop is not seeded by May 15 you can opt to not seed and apply full crop protection income of 200 per acre which makes their decision a little easier.

We got the "Inch" of rain in the last 3 days..So we are almost in next yr country..

The oilmen and bankers pockets are gonna be lined you can count on that one, when he gets punted he'll become a banker or oil exec with the job already waiting. We'll see about health care, everyday families well being, lots of dicktators were good bullshitters that's how they got to power and when reality caught up we see where they ended up.
Our only hope is that within the conservative party that the true centre conservatives overtake the reform nuts, then we could have some good or even better than government I agree, but too early to judge him based on a smooth speach. He's being cautious because he's feeling out how far he can start out in the right field boonies before the true blues start to yell.

Are you sure you are not talking about Paul Martin.

The man that registers his ships in bermuda for tax reasons.

The man that when he was prime minister could not give a shit about farmers and now is a large shareholder in one earth farms. And just got farmers to buy him some ships that he will own for nickels on the dollar.

[riders2010]

Those are valid points bucket, but he is not pm now. A speach is nothing without action. I can say though that in times past the liberals were much willing to help out in times like these. Time will tell is there going to be any assistance if this crop doesn't get seeded? I know early to talk about it but for some the writing is on the wall in terms of not seeding and otherewise as well particualarly back to back years like this. Their 18 dollars last year was a joke. the agriflopability is a joke for most. So we'll see if the righties that gonna be up against the wall with no crop if they are still gonna be so no gov assistance or not after the shit hits the fan on their own farms?

And chretien is doing what now? He obviously was a saint and never did anything to line his own pockets or his families.

Harper has done nothing to warrant such baseless accusations.

Don't be a typical liberal for once.

[riders2010]

Chretien? Jeez we are really going back in time, don't we want to deal with today? But since we are Chretien is likely hauling all his money around with those paper bags, you know the ones Mulroney used in a hotel in New York. And boy he sure wasn't making deals while in the pm office was he? If Stevie wasnt't the pm when that shit went down we'd maybe know the whole truth but the reformers were just so determined to hush that shit up weren't they!

Merely asking a question that is on many people's mind what is the position on assistance for not being able to seed.

Merely making a comment alot of leaders were and are good bullshitters, the proof of their leadership will play out in what they do not what they just say.

Answer this question was money used to build a shithouse hundred or so miles away from g8 with g8 money just so someone gets re elected?

Did oda change a legal document?

Is agriculture funding going to get slashed even more than it is?

What is in the afghan detainie report?

What is in the governor general report?

That stuff is not going away. Some of you are in a lala land that the majority means Stevie is a new man. We'll see.

etc etc etc.

sorry for double post. and should have read auditor general report not governor general report.

inch and a half to 2 inches possible for some areas i see now, holy crap, what would be the unseeded area estimate? i'd say 2 to 3 times last years amount.

[riders2010]

alzheimers must be on the way, forgot to mention also, Do you really want to piss off typical liberals Silverback? Because they are the reason Stevie has a majority, it came down to liberals thinking that with Jack's rush he may have become the pm so we stopped it, to take a lesser of 2 evils, thinking they would give stevie a minority but it backfired and they gave the majority.

[haveapulse]

Certainly, no one can individually assume the role of welcoming committee to the awakened Liberals, however I note that the migration that took place in Saskatchewan whereby now the convention can truly be held in a phone booth, may be occurring nationally; welcome Liberals you may want to get comfortable here.

The few that voted for unknown candidates in the west were steadfast in the heritage of voting unconditionally just because they were Liberal, not for any hope of forming the government. For, those pragmatic citizens recognizing the migration of the natural governing party to the Conservatives we welcome you!

We have a similar task.

You make good points but it is not too early start talking assistance. Lenders and suppliers don't give a shit about how wet it is. ANd everyone knows we are 3 weeks behind already. Every tenth of rain makes mud where usually in saskatchewan it just slows a guy down enough to have a coffee break.

Unusual times call for unusual actions and it will be interesting to see if harper and team comes through.

I am one of those who believe you should not lose your farm because of 1 in 300 years weather situation. Unfortunately in our area anyone in a tight spot is getting bought up by a generation farm with daddy's/grandaddy's money.
