Absolutely it has to do we a radical board supporter or not. In general they also support NFU who has basically came out against GMOs and science based environmental and food safety. They are generally socialist against most free trade agreements and captilosm. Do absolutely it has to do with being a Board/NFU supporter.

As farmer are you really going to vote for a slate of candidates picked by who knows who or are you going to go to Sask Wheat read the bios and make an informed choice?
I would probably pick Lindsay for the years farming experience, Reiter for a woman's view and probably Hepworth for the fact he wanted to be a farmer forever. Please make an informed choice and don't be lead by "paid for" advertising!

Begs the question...what kind of ties do these guys have? I know Zenneth Faye has been involved in numerous value add initiatives and as an incumbent is a no brainer for any board he wants to run for. The other two barley guys I don't know much about. The young Fransoo comes from the family who owned Parkland Pulse I'm sure. Another very good value add company in the prairies. Know the family but don't know this one personally. Rick Lindsey has all kinds of Exproenxe. Very polished man. Would be a fantastic representative. Laura Reiter has exprience on this board and no doubt with her back ground has and will do a fantastic job. Dan Danielson doesn't even really farm. Literally has no skin in the game. Involved for political reasons more so the personal or agricultural reasons. I know Scott personally. Heck of a good guy and more than qualified to make informed decisions with a farm first mentality. Bill Rosher is an organic farmer. If that's the voice you believe represents you then I guess he is a valid candidate.
Do your own due diligence but IMO teambarley looks pretty strong for that side and 4-5 excellent candidates on the wheat side.

It is now seems we have TeamWheat and TeamCWBA. Only Lindsey seems to be running for the voice of the farmer and not being bought and paid for by some outside advertising.
If you haven't voted yet vote for Lindsey and leave the teams alone. I hate agendas and it seems most of these candidates have them and they aren't for us farmers.
