Stop the Steamroller

[jimbobobaroo]

Funny thing I posted something a short while ago that
didn't get put up but I got a message directly from
Drew Baker on my facebook id arguing about it. No
one else saw it though, so I can only assume he is one
of the moderator/ drones.

He wouldn't answer my question re how he got to see
it but denied deleting my other posts.

So who runs it? When you create a site someone has be adminstrator. This can not be 'handed off'. The originator is always the first 'friend' is the one who created it.

Two possibilities,

1. The CWB never created the site and whoever did has retained the rights to keep it going as they were the first administrator and only they can delete it. The CWB may be screwed there. It probably is one of the ex directors who holds the keys.

2. The CWB made it. But given the posts there, i really don't think so, there is no profit in doing so whatsoever with.

Wilagro, there is no doubt you have no problem posting there. You're probably one of the administrators.

No, sorry but you're not even close on that one...however, I might just be one of the favorable posters...possibly a big help.

You guys are sure in a tizzy about that site though...it really bugs you.
I find it reasonably fair in that there is dissent as well as agreement. The more obnoxious crap has obviously been deleted as well it should.

As far as I can tell the CWBA (Canadian Wheat Board Alliance). They
have their own web page from a link on the top left corner of the
www.stopthesteamroller.ca

More interestingly they have a link to their facebook SavetheCWB page
which could use a little bit of a reality check!

We could just blame it all on BTO!

[jimbobobaroo]

Pisses me off a lot but probably not worth losing
too much sleep over at this point in time. Both
steamroller and save the CWB appear to be in
dismal failure.

[Hopperbin]

Agree a little with the we don't need to lose sleep over this issue. Agree a lot that we should find out who is deleting free speech in this country and passing it on as a show of democracy.

Stop the steamroller was a $million plus
advertising campaign paid for by farmers. The
CWB website had a link on its homepage to the
Facebook page. I don't really care who "owns"
the page now, but it was farmers who paid for all
the traffic that has been sent there.

The fact that those very farmers are censored
shows the ultimate hypocrisy of the site
administrators, and their complaints against the
government not listening to them. They know the
steamroller propaganda can't stand up to factual
criticism.

A facebook page like steamroller is not freedom of speech.

Its carefully orchestrated messages delivered to the uninformed.

Its also why Wilagro, anarchist groups, well known Conservative bashers like Mary Choma of catch 22 campaign, NDP union leads, and Korneychuk proudly promote their drivel as they all belong to CWBA.

CWB Alliance started it and now the new CWB has no control with what happens there apparently.

[Wheatking]

I see they took down any affiliations with
the CWB. No logo's on the Facebook page
or on the stop the steamroller website.
It's only the CWB alliance now. And I
have a feeling once these socialists have
to start paying their own way the wheels
are going to fall off the bus.
