Positives in Ag in Canada!

I pointed out some things showing hownthe consumer is even getting screwed. Same product-less volume-same OR more money. Time to shrink our bushels or tonnes and ask the same OR more money. Does the average consumer realize how they are getting hosed. Paint is a prime example-imperial gallon to U.S. gallon to something less than that and continually shrinking..... many examples in food packaging too. They can't shrink a liter, pound, kilo, gram but they sure as hell can give you less. Maybe that's why it's so hard to swallow the price of a "pound" of canola seed or a tonne of fertilizer. Should we be buying 12oz.lbs. and 1800lb tonnes to make the price more palatable? Get the picture?

Well, it didn't take long for the positives to turn into negatives. Touching on what Charlie somewhat alluded to, one positive is that there are very few if any farmers I know whose lifestyle and disposable income isn't way above what the vast majority of Canadians ever experience and an asset base that makes quite a few of you into one percenters. You work hard, you worry and stress. So does everyone. The ups and downs in farming are to be expected in a free market society. So put on the big girl panties, and chin up.

Not into cross-dressing, Perv......

Re, positives and negatives, never forget to look at the whole picture. Otherwise your only fooling yourself and don't forget to look both ways before crossing the street otherwise you may get run over. Percect analogy.
