So if supply management issue will save Canada then why not?

[the big wheel]

Why not have the conservatives come out and say it should be gone to make a better deal for the rest of Canada?
Severalnon this forum chriticizing liberals for not bending on the issue of supply so why doesn't the conservatives come out and say this. It would then make it a non issue in the next election for either party if both support it or want it gone.

But as it is some of you expect the liberals to sacrifice it which obviously will cost major seats in Ontario yet won't commit the conservatives? This is coming from someone as it stands would vote conservative if election was today.

Sacrificing SM wouldn’t cost a single seat in Ontario the way ridings are distributed. It may even gain a couple

Exactly. We don't have a party only an anti liberal vote.

If one industry with 4800 dairy producers can hold up the fate of a country, its just ridiculous. Why not have a national plebiscite, maybe they will find our really no one cares about dairy that much, just like western farmers. Has anyone heard the pollsters on this issue?

[agstar77]

Sure why not? The Cons sold out grain farmers and see how rich you all are.

[the big wheel]

Just because supply management would end that doesn't mean end of dairy here or would it? They'd have to compete like we have too. Ifor one would still buy Canadian in fact would pay more. I chose lots of vegetables etc from Alberta and Sask producers.

We are far better off than before.
I kinda like getting paid in full for the grain I deliver

Wouldn't gain any concessions from the Americans in any case so why throw it away?

Because its a socialist marxist construct that has no place in a capitalist system. And its stupid to let a tiny fraction of the electorate wag the dog.

For the most part I am guessing it probably would be the end.
The American guys on other sites say there is so much over capacity in the business and the huge , business dairy
Operations thousands of cows. Ran with cheap migrant labour
ARE running the small ones out.

Even with the US government dumping 1.8 billion $ a year
Into the industry.
They are still going broke.
They say Wisconsin alone could supply Canada's milk.

Not really about helping US farmers.
More about the huge dairy corporations taking over the business here.

It is a social program here. Keeps. Smaller operations
A float. People on farms making money.

Once it is gone, what is there to stop the big corps from
Dumping milk here .
I am sure they will not last long.
And it will be the same model here as the states.

IF that is what you want. That is what you will get.
