CP Strike

Union had no choice they were going back to work either way.

Not a union guy but the speed in which the conservatives acted is suspect.

They sure took their time issuing an OIC last year.

[farmaholic]

Wasn't last year's OIC really only was for grain producers benefit. This years action is to circumvent widespread national economic loses. Nothing suspect to me... that they acted sooner.

Then I guess they should have issued the OIC in October 2013 when they knew the RRs were behind?

And leaving 50000 farmers grain sitting made no economic losses?

And add in the fact the RRs are missing the reduced target of 650000 tonnes by 100000 tonnes.

In fact they are moving less than last year.

Move along nothing to see here. Back to the tin foil wrap.

MB grower.
whoop de do, this same govt.sat on it's ass all last winter, and monitored.

. you guys that are so worried about a socialist solution.

the way the Mississippi is managed
is kinda socialist. maintained by the govt . ( truly horrible)

if they can do that, i think it is OK for conservative's here to actually do something.


you do not even have to call it socialist.
