Harp is fibbing, cause he's a politico, and thats what they do, or at least waffling cause they don't know what to do. Am I right or am I right, read it and weep duds! The fate of the government rests on barley and wheat, heck a lot of the public doesn't know the difference between the two grains. Huge issue, I don't think so. The drone speech is just that, nothing, to get really, really, really excited about!

[Burbert]

Continuous cropping, pour the fertilizer and chemicals on, grow only what the government says is a winner. Canola on canola, on canola, on canola. Clubroot be damned. Thats a gag problem, they can study and study and study and study the issue, till it goes away.

Sorry to deviate from the topic of the thread, but after reading enough of Burbert's posts I felt compelled to reply.I enjoy reading the input from contributors to the site but find myself embarassed to be a member of a group of producers who some may consider Burbert to be a spokesman for. Your total lack of class or decency toward other contributors makes me hope no one really believes you to be representative of the farm population.

Remember when Ritter was first elected to the CWB board of directors. He was elected as a dual marketer. Was he telling the truth then? Is he telling the truth today?

Burbert,

Being short on my wheat basis by $70/t is not a laughing matter... it is criminal. That $70/t is 100% of the profit on those acres... and the CWB is either keeping it for themselves... or more likely giving it to some multi-national instead of "designated area" growers.


Your beloved Borg is digging their grave... at warped speed!

If this is your wish/intent and true desire... so be it.

Burbert - You want the truth?!

FACT: March 28th, the day the plebiscite results were announced - non-CWB feed barley in Alberta was $0.43/bu BELOW Montana feed barley (farmgate prices)

FACT: In the days and weeks following the announcement that the Conservatives would provide Choice, Alberta cash prices rose RELATIVE TO MONTANA prices to a high of about $0.76/bu ABOVE Montana prices.

FACT: Since the court challenge returned CWB "authority" over barley, Alberta cash prices have plummeted to a point where they are now $1.87/bu BELOW Montana prices.

The best way to cut through the noise of market factors is to look at important relationships - spreads - like this. Relative to Montana prices, Alberta prices dropped a total of $2.63/bu and the only reason is that a fundamental change occurred to inhibit the two markets from arbitraging.

Did the return of the CWB to the barley market have a negative impact on prices?

It's non-debatable. Of course it did.

Did Harper lie? Of course not.

Did Ritter lie? I don't think so. If you comment about something that you are ill-equipped to do so, or you don't understand what it is that you're talking about, you're not lying. You're just a silly idiot.

Did harper lie about income trusts?

Is it possible for harper to say one thing and do another?
