    Did they punch pro CWB sign there also, good on them. Hey us anti monopoly people should make pro CWB signs just to punch them in in front of the media. Thought I should pass on the idea.

        Jusy got home a little while ago.

        Twas quite a young crowd. A 27 year old gave me a ride to Weyburn, and as knowledgebale as all getout.

        Over 200 attended, with farmers there from Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba.
        CWB elected-Director Jim Chatenay chaired the meeting.

        Vicki Dutton spoke and gave a remarkable presentation.

        Ex-Minister of Agricuture Charlie Mayer provided some guidance.

        Doug McBain, Past President of the WBGA shared his knowledge.

        CheriLynn Jolly spoke to the audience, always centred on marketing choice.

        Lots of frustration with the CWB out there.

        Lots.

        There was a private meeting in the basement when the main meeting ended, and the press were asked to leave.

        Tentative plans were made to proceed with actions to achieve market choice.

        Demands
        Ultimatum

        Deadline dates

        Consequence for non-response to demands.

        Lots of "new" faces.

        For those who read Agri-ville, and came over to ask if I was Parsley, and then introduced yourselves to me, thanks. It was so very mice to match the face with the handle. Even got a note relayed to me which asked, "Are you Parsley?" Indeed I am.


        I think I will legally change my name.

        So many people with the same vision in one room is overwhelming.

        I am proud to be part of a quiet, determined revolution.

          Andy McMeachan attended the meeting. His comments both during the meeting and during the after-meeting, provided some direction to the farmers.

          A one hour documentary about the Farmers for Justice preceded the meeting, and all watched it as they entered the auditorioum, awaiting the meeting to begin.

              Just us get jailed.

              Farmers for Justice tried to counteract the Wheat Board's "Just Jail the West" policy.

              Eastern farmers wouldn't put up with the kind of Wheat Board policy set by fanatical monopoly Wheat Board Directors for one nano second.

              Canadians don't approve of the Whaet Board's jailing policy.
