Is it worth growing canola? ???

Just a wild guess but as others have said here , Trump is making a deal with China , and will get one , while side stepping the “captive” issue here in Canada . He will leave us out to dry due to our current leaderships complete idiocy.

You ever see the provincial ag minister call the federal counterpart that quick before....

My guess is the used car salesman is on an input contract ....

They would loose the election over that the rural base would cave!

I cancelled my seed yesterday. Will put flax in I guess or just more lentils.

Apparently on the news Freeland is from a canola farming family and the new Quebec ag minister is all over this file. Yeah right, way too late for that. Probably better those incompetents don't even get involved.

The US meets with china every single day working out issues and our people wont even leave the GTA Ottawa area unless its to go apologize to some group.

When the EU shitcanned our flax market ....China was there to pick it up....what happens if China stops flax imports?


Pulse crops the same .....saskpulse said they were hoping China picks up the India slack.....now what?


We are so ****ed with these privileged assholes in Ottawa ....


Anyone call their MP or better yet call Goodale's office....that will make your blood boil....

Here is a kinda a little inside info. One of my American cousins is married to a fella that has worked in Washington even before he got out of college. First working for senators and then as a lobbyist for Fannie Mae, now he works for American Airlines in the capital. At Christmas I asked him if it was true that Liethusuer hated Freedland, while he said he didn't know if that was correct the general consensus around DC was that the Canadian negotiating team was extremely overmatched by the US team. If anybody on this forum doesn't think that the US played Canada like a fiddle on this Huaewi thing is sadly mistaken. Trump will get a deal with China, we will extradite her to the US and Trump will let her go, and in the process he will have eliminated Canadian canola as a competitor to US beans and will have ruined Canada's rep with China. Now I am not blaming Trump for this , I think it was his plan all along, the Art of the Deal. By the way I believe JWR will be the next Liberal leader by the end of April, she has orchestrated a masterful in house coup.

What is the most valuable piece on a chess board? The king is a useless cumbersome piece...very vulnerable and defenceless.

Maybe Miss Meng Wanzhou needs to be our queen. Possession is 9/10 of the law. Maybe she becomes our bargaining chip. But we need someone who knows how to negotiate.

Stupid how the government put Canadians between a rock(USA) and a hard place(China).

Kind of a no win situation, piss either one off and it's not good but is it possible to placate both at the same time?

The thinking was that it is a small enough crop to not notice. Some has been going to the US and Europe again. Crop choices are limited.

Soooooo easy to over produce small market crops!

Flax, Mustards, canaryseed, oats,....
