If you think the BOARD is representing or is the voice of small and medium size farmers you are sadly mistaken. The board is there for the board and that is it.
90% of farmers get most of their income from exports and trade. 40% of Canada's GDP comes from exports and trade.
The lowering of trade barrier's, subsidies and tariffs around the world would be a good thing for most farmers and for Canada as a whole.
The wheat board is opposed to this because it is a barrier to trade itself. It is by its very nature the quintessential special interest group in Geneva.
