Braveheart, I appreciate the dialogue. I would note that the Liberals never put oats back under.
While this constant squabbling goes on and on, is it not better that we have at least had the freedom of off-board feed grains in Canada?
In 1972, the Supreme Court ruled that producer grain is agriculture and outside the jurisdiction of the CWB which is Trade and Commerce. I submit that the CWB monopoly cannot function properly without the captive supplies of farmers, which they have not been given a right to. Give producers export licences and the monopoly is broken, and hopefully the bickering about the monopoly. It seems to me don't really hear that much about oats, etc.
