Canada is a free Country Burbert maybe you would feel more comfortable in Cuba or North Korea. Maybe it is you who should learn to love it(freedom)or leave it.

Burbert,
You said;
"It is our farm marketing board"
When did I vote for it?
Ontario and Quebec need two thirds approval to get a marketing board in place in Manditory terms.
OWPMB did not even vote on the monopoly the Ontario Wheat Board had, they simply and with out fan fare just de-regulated.
Why should it be any different in Alberta?
The "Trade and Commerce" Constitutional title the CWB Act gets its originating authority from does not cover Agriculture, or the produce grown by me on my farm;
Provincial legislation is needed... which by the way SK and MB have in place. Alberta removed it's CWB authorisation in the early 1980's.
Alberta has every right to be out of the "designated area"... just not to a choice market using the CWB. This is the problem from what I have learned.
