Whats was talked about at the Commoditee Clasic.

What farmers need is a point man that represents all the groups involved in this issue.

One guy with a clear understanding of the issues and defined goals of the groups and farmers he represents. And look at them objectively.

Someone that can sit in front of a parliamentary or senate committee and repeat the demands over and over ad nauseum.

Someone that has facts and figures at their fingertips.

Someone that can rely on farmers and vice versa with good information.

Someone that can correlate prices to railway and grainco performance.

And finally someone who can call bullshit and say farmers will do this or that and have their support.

SF3 - who would be your pick for the job?

I know my pick. Convincing him is the challenge.

[SASKFARMER3]

You know who I would pick also! But that's what we need! As long as everyone is going in different directions we will never see a change!

Ag more than ever going in 50 different ways! Ah farming!

we had a federal rep like that here , was real genuine and seemed to care about sask farmers and in the news all the time ....., but sadly he has been silenced lately . made to much noise , I guess? should of been Ag minister, wish he was still working for us

Isn't the reality in Canada that the election is already decided by the time the polls close in Ontario?

[Guest]

bucket , has anyone asked him ? there's lots of check off $$ to work with here and I know he would get personal satisfaction out of it

Mr. Larry Weber

[fjlip]

Top down democracy, they represent the Gov plans/laws TO US. Ass backward, should be called parliament members NOT MPs.
Agree SK3 "It's a stuck record but why any young person would ever want to farm is beyond me!
Farming more than ever is going down the proverbial tube!"

Same for my 45 years, nothing changes...

[SASKFARMER3]

Couldn't run his ag service side! We would need a mill meaning asking for a lot of our checkoff dollars going to fund this idea! It's all about the money! But yes the way it's going now is useless!
Groups do nothing but try to get their one point done!
Sad the more things change the more they stay the same!

[SASKFARMER3]

If Justin can't win Quebec he has a problem! Maybe Ottawa knows that and doesn't want to shake the boat!
But if lots out west stay home or just dong care could some seats change!
I'm curious, but also lots are at their expired date and this next one means nothing they see the promise land!
But definitely need a change in advocacy in Ottawa!

Weber could double his subscription fees and take a good portion of the check off dollars.

It would be money well spent.

The rest can't fall into place until farmers get the transportation and grainco files straightened out.
