Canada got a Deal, No it’s Liberal Fluff.

I have been in the same area SF3 and it is amazing how much foresight and planning went into water management and usage. Did you see all the pumping stations and canals south of that big lake. You do realize we now have the man who ****ed up the whole water drainage issue running the province. I am afraid nothing good can come from him.

[SASKFARMER3]

Yes it’s amazing sight.

Yea the Moe thing with sask water drainage is a step back in time. No plan no idea it was bullsht.

The Americans get shit done.

Canada sorry excuse me sorry sorry excuse me sorry. Attitude sucks.

Like I posted a few months back it’s a lot easier to farm when you finally realize the whole industries need you and live off your farm and couldn’t care if you sink or swim just as long as some other sucker picks up the slack.

Just like the worker who does his job excellent for 25 plus years and gives everything for that job and sacrifices his family is replaced two weeks after he retires or dies.

No one cares about the primary producer because some other sucker will pick up the pieces.

Before he retires ?

Before he retires ?

I'm more confused by the part about replacing him 2 weeks after he dies? How long after an employee dies is it acceptable to expect them to quit going to work?

Well look at it this way when he goes visit trump in prison he ll be wearing stripes and a nice penitentiary logo on the back with a. Bar of soap in hand. Hahahaha
Maybe trump will grab the marbles if he gets lonely in there. Hahaha

[Klause]

You want a "Canada first" approach and then want India to not r "India first".


Every country looks after their own. Quit whining.


Maybe should have hold spga and pulse Canada to account 10 years ago...


Can't blame I did for trying to feed their own people.

All I m saying is why we're there not deals and rules of trade in place to avoid this?

Expand expand expand the industry oh ya baby good idea but how about make sure something solid to base the industry on first.

Complete industry failure as a waste of check off money.

Complete industry failure? Let’s not get carried away here. Peas are still trading. Just delivered some a couple weeks ago for $7. Not great I realize but not horrible either-sold peas for 4.50 some years ago.
And red lentils at .19 c is not great but they have been much lower. There are some moving at that too.
China is on pace to import record volumes.
New plants are coming on stream here
Pulse consumption in North America quadrupled last year.
There are positives.

Something doesn't seem right. Quadruple in one year doesn't even sound possible, even from the extremely low levels they started at. From western Producer :

Based on an analysis of U.S. Department of Agriculture stocks data, domestic consumption of pulses in the United States will reach 900,000 tonnes in 2016-17, up from 350,000 tonnes the previous year.


Which is still 2.5 times YOY. Must be some sort of accounting trick, to balance stocks that ended up showing such an increase in such a short period of time?

Check off dollars maybe partly should go to investigating why the prices we ve received and still receive aren't what they should be kinda like the bread selling deal for us wheat farmers.

[bucket]

Galen Weston admits price fixing and collusion of billions of dollars and he gets away with a 25 dollar gift card that relieves him of a class action and the CRA allows him to use the tax laws to take a write down.....

Worse yet he leaves the price of bread where it was to pay for it all.


Watching politicians ask about the current grain transportation issue ....the response is the conservative did nothing for 10 years...that's the benchmark. ...to do very little....

It's so warming to have people that obviously don't give a **** about much....

Politicians don't understand the problem nor do they care..
