MNP Releases Results of the 2011 CWB Producer Plebiscite.

Willy,

The CWB spent every dollar they wanted... to get me to vote.

I refused to participate in this survey because this 'plebicite' survey was neither democratic nor ethical nor representitive of those commercial growers who were to be forced to use the CWB. The survey and how it was handled goes against the CWB's own code of ethics and conflict of interest guidelines. It broke the ministers order telling the CWB to stop promoting the 'single desk'.

As I said earlier in Quebec and Ontario they need at least 75 percent of actual producers to be in favour before this kind of marketing Board is implemented.

Cheers Wilagro... are you swathing or combining yet?

I'm sure the Kremilin 8 will put a brave face on this , but these kind of results with a stacked voters list and a flawed voting system, is hardly a vote of confidence. I had expected the numbers to be closer to 80% for wheat and 60% for barley.

62 and 51 percent on this vote is a clear sign for most farmers want open market. They should have split durum and other wheats up also, and also included every western Canadian farmer,
what a crock. Jesus Christ sorry for my french but get us some prices now for new crop.
