The case for LESS government regulation..RR cap to be removed?

[dalek]

I could send you a few corn cobs Tom.

Good job rockpile.

[TOM4CWB]

Thanks dalek... things have refrained better for now... perhaps the corn cobs are better left in the field!!!

By the way Braveheart...
As I have driven by Reddeer and thought back a few times... I think It was Lee Erickson now that I dig back again... that was talking to/with me/thinking about getting a bike and riding through Alberta for a ride of freedom! Hmmm took a Hunger Strike to remember better!!!? I truly did appreciate your support on the CWB file! Many Many interesting memories!!!

I heard Lee had a bad back, had an operation and is now much happier the pain has subsided! Great when a plan works out... and people feel better! I think I will give Lee a Call!!!

When Harper's Bill C-51 becomes law, your little hunger strike could be perceived as a terrorists act. The railways are a very important to the economy of Canada, and your battle with them could very well be interpreted as disruptive to the railway's day to day operations.

Be very careful Tom, you wouldn't want to be put on the terrorists watch list by the very government you so dearly love.

[TOM4CWB]

Forage,

Since you thought my hunger strike was a good idea... you could be considered a part of the cell I belong to?

Grin!

Hard to believe that the guy (me)who specifically and intentionally has been non-violent... and preaches non-violence... would be arrested for being the opposite.

If it were to be so... I have always said in standing for truth and what is right... gets me in jail... I am ready to go...

Hence my greeting... "I am not in Jail yet!"

[Braveheart]

Tom, it was Lee. I believe he already had a bike then.

Hunger Strike?? You've been eating soup( which can be very hardy) and going to conventions and so on.

Tom your 14 days into this thing. Something doesn't add up. We all had our doubts about Chief Spence.

[TOM4CWB]

Forage,

That was really encouraging and kind of you!

Do you want to call Brian Lilley, John Robson, or Dan Hozack to confirm the fact that I ate a bowl of soup per day... and refused starchy meaty soups when served. Apple juice was my preferred liquid at our seminar.

Question... is your objective to have me die... before spring work? Are you saying I can only have water? What is your point... seriously?

[farmaholic]

Pack your bags forage, someone is booking you a guilt trip. The "Shame and Remorse Resort" can be depressing this time of year...

[cottonpicken]

I appreciate what you are doing.

When you end it you should look into the keto diet thing because you'll be over half way there to full nutritional ketosis your body will be/is running on ketones it's worth the experience unless your diabetic then its dangerous.

[TOM4CWB]

I feel a poem coming on,,,...

[TOM4CWB]

Thanks CP...

I was trying to get Dear Lucy... the better looking smarter contributor to our Children's genetics... and after she signed up... she was annoyed and perturbed with the crude and unneeded foulness of some threads. So she said NO WAY would she post on Agriville!

Being civil and kind is an artform we should embrace. It is not only MP's that are repulsed by meanspirited conservatives that must boost their ego by putting others down. Just a thought.

People who have gone on hunger strikes in the past and, have die for a cause they strongly believe in. Tom your in control of your intake not me, do what is best for yourself health wise. If you want to eat, then eat. I don't care.

I personally really don't know where your going with this. One minute your telling us to phone our MP's asking them to put the screws to the railways with regard to poor service and the next minute your telling us what a great job your MP, Ritz and Harper are doing.

Tom, if your MP, Harper, and Ritz are doing such a great job why are you still on the hunger strike.

[TOM4CWB]

Forage,
Very simple.

CN and CP have a $423,000 Writ of Execution... against my farm. Until they remove this... I am on a hunger strike.

At no time did anyone ever threaten not to pay CNCP.

In fact I offered to give a written apology... to their satisfaction...

for the removal of the Writ of execution on my families farm.

Every farm in western Canada... is under the same threat.

If we do not remove the profit rate cap on grain... CNCP will sweat every last cent out of us grain growers... they figure we owe them.

I am a symptom of a much larger dynamic... all our farms are being threatened with. I object. All grain farmers can join in with their objections equally.

Thanks for allowing me to better explain what is going on.

Have you ever tried to get a lien off a piece of land or equipment? DO you know how hard that can be?

[sawfly]

Normally I would feel for your predicament
But given it is your boys that have cultivated this mess.
I with you will suffer .but find immense
Conciliation that your own parties actions are biting you in the butt
