    No checking, what will happen is the alberta government will invest heavily in irrigation infrastructure.

    The taxpayers will get the same treatment as what went on with the oil companies.

    Help us help you. And when shit hits the fan you can burden the taxpayers.

        Some have been around since the beginning of January.

        It's not acceptable given the weather and they could be moving a million a week.

        But I won't go off on the tinfoil conspiracy theories much anymore. Too many are complacent enough to let 1997 and 2013 happen again.

        Won't feel sorry for guys with 40 cent lentil contracts in the fall sitting as 25 cent contracts get delivered.

        And guys that say it's not bad are condoning the graincos and railways incompetence that wasn't tolerated when the cwb was in place.

            I think the average grain bulk carrier hauls 40 -50 thousand tonnes?

            A lot of rain lately. I know others have said it doesn't slow down loading
            ships one bit. I don't know.

            Docked at Cargill:
            Tamarita: arrived at Vancouver Jan 26
            Federal SW: ETA Vancounver was Jan 16

              I don't think there has been any progress no matter what system is in place.

              Lineups of super Bs at terminals is no different than 3 tons at wooden elevators.

              Running 50 percent space isn't efficiency in the handling system either.

              And trucking past usable facilities for graincos logistics considering the cost of highways is unacceptable.
