I Beg Your Pardon...

[wilagro]

ASRG: I wouldn't even dream of re-instating the single desk...that is not possible or probable now.

It's just too bad that the CWB wasn't amended to allow opt-out to accommodate those who wished to do so. I really believe that we have lost a valuable marketing tool that we had at least some control of. This CWB that remains is a fully government run shell which I don't trust to work in the interests of many farmers as it is too close to political influence and control.

Hoppsing,

You said; "several Farmers For Justice fellows had creditor and tax problems which suggests an alternative motive for running the border."

Do you know IF these 'Several'people actually recieved a pardon?

As for motivation:... providing a decent living and income for ones farm and family... and helping ones' local community be self sufficient (at the expense of arrogance and injustice); and be rid of gov. interference in the daily life of ones' family...

These are not reasonable and hounorable motivation to fight the injustice of the CWB 'single desk'?

I question your motivation Hoppsing...

In smearing the good name of 'Farmers of Justice' and the community that supported this liberation movement (now that you mention this)!

[jdepape]

Excuse my ignorance but how is having a "tax
problem" a motive for running the border?

[TOM4CWB]

hoppsing,

US Customs reported the value of the shipments... as did the CDN growers on their broker papers.

These papers were submitted to Canada Customs as required... except for the CWB export license. I SAW export licenses being created in Coutts.... on Photo copy machines... by AWP... myself. They typed in the new numbers needed by the trucker... and off he went to the US with his 'CWB export license'. THis whole system was a scam.

Which was why we were objecting to the 'Single Desk'

[blackpowder]

Yes Wilagro, the opt out. Something we can agree on.
Fanaticism did indeed kill it.

[LWeber]

You piece of shit.

Barley trading a little slow?

You are trying to marginalize farmers who took a stand while you exonerated directors who let dead people vote; that turned a blind eye to 250 million dollar trading losses and scammed laker purchases onto the backs of farmers on behalf of Adrienne and Gord.

Get back to daycare at 423 where you belong. Must be getting a little thinner in there lately, tfg.

The sooner that someone determines that the attitude in that place is incestuous ..those that are left might have a fighting chance to prosper and provide value back to the farm.

FARMERS FOR JUST ME helping local comunitys what complete bullshit the only ones these parisites ever helped is theirselfs

[ASRG]

The two guys I know......walked across the border with ONE bushel of grain and donated it to Montana 4H beef clubs!

Neither of them were large grain producers....they were standing up for a principle!

To have somebody call them "just in it for themselves" is completely ridiculous!

Shame on you people who question these good men!

Webber, you crossed the line with your stupid
Trudeau quote. This is a forum which I think means
people can express their feelings and opinions in a
FREE and RESPECTFUL way. If I recall, YOU were just
an AB Govt second rate hack paid to regurgitate
yesterdays news, and quite frankly, I don't see
anything that's changed. As for some of the posts, I
think they refer to gun totting, anti-tax advocate
(kid on the road) Sawatzky and Andy M, Who
according to court documents was commercially
trucking other people's grains. As for the Coutts
troopers, that's a different story. In the end people,
it wasn't silly stunts and peacocking that changed
anything - it was the ballot box stupid!
