On a more serious note sure hope it turns out to be an accidental fire, wiring short etc. and not somebody just being plain stupid!

Looks a bit funny to me, on Flaman's part.
1. How was Flaman doing in the last 10 years of farming?
2. Usually organic farmers turned to organics, when they were in deep financial trouble, and could not borrow from no one to farm. Was Flaman an organic farmer?
3. Knowing that you are going to lose a cash cow (director of CWB wages, etc.), what a perfect time to kind of get out of farming free card if you know what I mean.....surely it will look like some anti CWB person might be mad at a director, and divert the blame if any on them.
4. Something like 70% of fires are arson related, but very hard to prove.

1. Rod and his wife were out of town the nite/morning of the fire so couldn't have been 'stoking'it every hour.
2. There are alot of very successful farmers who grow organic for any number of reasons, philosophical and environmental views , as a form of diversifying, or as a way to capitalize on a niche market - it has been my experience that while organic farming saves on input costs the risks are much higher and therefore requires a certain level of financial stability that conventional farming does not.
3. Directors of the CWB only got a $20,000/year retainer (as compared to almost 6 times that for directors at Viterra) so I doubt that losing that 'little cash cow' as you put it would cause any financial strain.
Your comments are reminiscent of Mr. Ritz's following the listeria outbreak - "Death by a Thousand Cold Cuts" and are just as inappropriate and reprehensibe!
