Do you know what happened to it? I went to listen to the latest show as I was away and they are all gone from the 980 insider site.

It was kind of like the "Western Seducer", it got my blood pumping. I am going to miss it.

rodb,

A couple of weeks ago, I tuned in and there was nothing. No show at all. It was such an interesting show! If you wanted to know what was going on, Weber was sure tuned in.

I sent an e-mail into the station to see if what time it was on, and heard back zippo.

Maybe you can email in and let us know as they ignored my query. I typed 980 radio saskatchewan into google to get the number.

OK Parsley, I'll bite. How is this this the CWB's fault?


By the way, you previously bragged about how great a show this was so what happened? Perhaps your tastes and opinions aren't as common as you think?

[parsley]

I enjoyed the show and it seems rodb did, too. Weber put a lot of work/ research in that show which is what made it interesting; we get his daily newsletter.

Lots of farm shows are good for agriculture and farmers.

MP says Parliament should decide Wheat Board fate

The fate of the Canadian Wheat Board should be decided by Parliament, not an arbitrary regulation by the Conservative government, says Liberal agriculture critic Wayne Easter.

Easter said federal Agriculture Minister Chuck Strahl has announced the government could end the CWB's single-desk system for barley marketing simply by writing a new regulation, an approach that would bypass Parliament.

Media reports say the CWB is already seeking legal advice for a possible challenge to the government's plan, Easter said.

The minister's decision came in the wake of results from a plebiscite among barley farmers that the government interprets as an endorsement for ending the board's single-desk system for barley.

I agree with Wayne Easter.

Parliament should be the final arbiter on the CWB.

[Fransisco]

'arbitrary regulation' like this is just out of the blue,someone thought this up last night. Right. Give me a break.

It's time to move on guys. Other than signing the papers the deal is done. The process and terms have been agreed to and hands have been shook.

Ralph Goodale trying to run "jail the damn farmers" loophole through Parliament would have caused a little 'edgeyness" backthen!

Wouldn't single-deskers rather keep their regulatory-habit in play?

Parsley,

Goodale did not even allow the normal 30 day response period when he did his change. He broke the law... if anyone has he guilty not Minister Strahl.

[parsley]

Tom4CWB,
Do you suppose wilagrow would be making that post back then?

I hear from a good source that the Larry Weber family are farming 'on the weekends' on their newly purchased farm.

Good luck to a new farm family in Saskatchewan!
