Mixed emotions on today's announcement

[malta]

I am thrilled with the announcement, especially the timeline that the legislation will be passed by Dec.31. The only sad part is that the group of 8 on the CWB board is blowing the opportunity to provide a strong voluntary CWB for those who want one. If I was a CWB supporter I would be angry and disappointed in these 8 gentlemen.

Please try to keep up Galaxie. How many times do we have to explain here that it has never been about hauling the physical product to the US. Do canola growers have to personally deliver their product to the buyers in China? DUHHH, enough already, time to find a new arguement.

hope you know what announcement I'm referring to. Legislation to be introduced today.

My mixed emotion has disappeared. The continued fight and threat of legal action by the CWB board of directors has clearly indicated the board will continue with it's all or nothing approach. Because this is the path chosen by those in power, expect little sympathy from others. This all or nothing approach has what has got us to this point in the first place. The board has never brough anything to the table but expects all to bow down to the all mighty and give what ever they ask. At the end of the day even that won't be good enough. For those that support the boards position I wish you 20 years of no one listening in Ottawa and lots of whining on deaf ears. Then maybe you will understand all the crap we have had to put up with over the last 20.
