HRS Should prices be posted in US Dollars since they want us to trade on Min!

[sawfly]

it does not matter what currency they are posted in.
if they can take that much , they will.
and they are. it is not about conscience. it is business.

this is the system we dreamed about with rose colored glasses.

we have absolutely none of the factors present to have a real competitive functioning market.

monopoly rail roads, virtually untouchable now.
a handful of grain co.s in the driver seat.

without farmers having a presence in those 2, we are down to begging the gov. to get them to play nice.
good luck with that.

Have to agree with dalek, Braveheart and SF3.

Either do something about it to change it or set up a brokerage account.
I will send an email to the wheat commission regarding selling wheat in a US dollars.


IMO Perpetual complainers like Riders2010 should phone Ritchie Bros and book the sale instead of blaming Stephen Harper for all of life's problems.

Oliver,,, I totally agree with DaleK as well.

If you want to work... and earn US dollars... for wheat... you can do this any day of the week... without a CWB buyback.

We earn what we receive for our grain... or we take what they will GIVE us. Just like buying machinery. You can pay retail... plus 20 percent at some dealers if you want!!!

On earn a price that is much lower for the same equipment. Your CHOICE.

Nothing in this life is free!!!

We were never promised everything would be fair... either!!!

or use another railroad ,life isnt fair lol , instead of whining about it all the time. actually we had real good rail service in the NE in the last year . just to bring out some of the positives , which is good cause the US border is a long god damn haul for us

[riders2010]

if you can say with a straight face that this isn t fkd up your either a *** moron or harpers pay roll.

Steve is the *** government, if he doesn t want to govern for agriculture get the fk out.

The only place there was good transportation around here was when you had to sell your grain off grade then they would move it .

[TOM4CWB]

Riders,

I call your bluff.

If you were PM and responsible for Canada... I doubt you would substantially do things different.

Crown Ministers must be responsible for each area they govern... the PM over see's the Affairs of the Ministers... and trouble shoots hot spots like international affairs and Economic trouble shooting of global monetary issues.

Insinuating Gov should break global trade deals... infringe of private property rights... and dictate how farmers should trade their food products... is simply put absurd.

The simple situation is this... if you are not happy with your elevator basis or marketing options... CHANGE to a different marketing partner. Blaming PM Harper is a very lame excuse... not something I would advertise!!!

BTW;

CNCP lawyers removed the writ off our families farm...

the bill is paid...

I hope the rail roads are satisfied with the PR they got out of the $423.000 they took... on top of the 10's of $M they took from CDN prairie grain growers.

Cheers!

You need to stop the hunger strike your a bit delirious and quite a bit like all the right wing nut balls that are either on the conservative pay roll to do nothing or have other incomes paying for the farms.

you were telling us how beautiful everything was until that transportation problem hit your farm and then wow who was whining?
So how did that get setteled for you did Steve make a phone call? If I was to bet I d say that s how that went down.

the wheat market is a bigger shit show than it ever has been.

If I were prime minister first thing I d do is implement a clear open up the books of how all these market deals take place what is the real reason of basis change etc. none of this money grab when we need it bullshit it s flat out theft but when y ou have a dictator that's ball less in regards to farmer interest this is what happens

[Oliver88]

If all a guy can do is continually complain, be miserable and call others morons.....it's time to call Ritchie Bros and schedule the sale of your machinery.
The good news is, due to high demand you can also get top value for farmland by renting it out or for selling your land.

There are lots of options to make money off your land base.
