rider, it all boils down to which you prefer; a command economy or a market economy. I have to go with the latter since, over time, it will prevail anyway.

Checking, since when do farmers not want to farm? Give 'em a chance.

And if i read one more post about foreigners buying
up our stuff and screwing everything up i'm going to
flip my lid.

Do you know why nobody has ever put up a pie chart
showing who owns what and lives where?

Because we ****ING own it,everything....

Geez cotton whatcha talking aboot?

Ahh the global resource base of the tsx

Geez whatcha meen?

I give up

It's funny how China works with a quota on rare earths. The world won't even buy the amount of tonnes offered.(sigh) Even more funny how molycorp shares have declined.

What is it about people selling their first born (substitute soul for the believer) to possess the next ounce of mined silver? - comment for silver collectors only!!!

HT, you're dealing with such a small driven group that would desire to be dairy - poultry farmers. A niche of niches whose shelf life would be taken out rather quickly by scaled companies with millions of layers and friers, and oceans of milk. To what end? For the equivalent of an individual's change for weekly lottery tickets. Not worth it just to eliminate the present system!

Ramp it up to tens of thousands of grain farmers foregoing millions each on as few as tens of quarters of land over a lifetime and you have my attention on why a marketing board needed to be scrapped.

It seems to me the dairy consumer in the U.S is
served a lot cheaper product and milk from
wisconsin is probably white like ours isn't it?
I understand people not wanting milk from china
despite how cheap the price. But why can't we
open the market up among Canadian dairy
producers and yes even American producers and
let the market settle out what the price should be
for real here in Canada. And I don't want to here
the "milk is different " line because it is food just
like the other things we get at the grocery store.

Is there any concern over this?
