Is anybody moving anything? Getting ridiculous!

Think the question was , is there any grain movement anywhere and I said yes. I know there are problems with grain movement but here is decent , and I said the whining is on every subject that comes on here, ex-the topic of what is the good things about Alberta and right away your leader lead off with pesstimisson about Alberta taxes , one example .

I am "positive" you don't have to come here if you don't want to or are free to leave anytime you wish....

Klause, your talking red river valley, that's a different world down there, very prosperous, you could well be right on what they are doing with their grain. Wheat is a minor crop in the area you speak of, lots of specialty crops ( highest heat units in the province ) i thought we were talking wheat movement. Great mennonite work ethic.

Glad some one has excellent grain movement.
Oh wait if all I had to deliver was one bag of HRS that I contracted last fall for Feb March movement. Wow I guess yesterdays train was working just fine for me. But my question to all who think our rail and elevators are working. What about the 40 or so trucks waiting in line to deliver yesterday. First train in a month. Ah They all must have one bag also. HA HA HA HA HA HA
Look at the big picture. Movement of grain is the shits again and this years crop was smaller than last years.
Ah farming where some things never change.
One good drought might change the grain handling system.

No SF3, a drought will just mask the problems and nothing will get "fixed".

I understand people have different quantities of grain to move.....

My point is Gov. learnt how to handle farming things from the great Lyle Vancleaf. study and hope the problem goes away.
All I'm getting at is their hoping its a smaller crop and grain movement gets back to normal by the time all the studies run their course. Just in time for election.
Study study and more study.
Ah Canada where after a 100 and some years we still cant figure out this shit.

40 trucks in a line is 20 railcars. Sounds like they are loading direct using trucks as their 1 HR temporary storage.

When shit like this happens it shows the deficiencies in the whole system.

Then the train will sit there for 3 days.

We've flogged this issuento death.

Funny how an uneducated oaf can see the problems, a growing Western Canadian economy in need of infrastructure and the educated people in power are blinded by ideological dogma and pensions and board seats.

Well said. Now tell your MP that.

Doubt you get a call about your concerns.

Funny how they listened when they were in opposition and said they would fix it once in power. Now they make excuses.

SF3... the studies are public... perhaps I should post them?
