    Graincos having trouble filling trains means less for the railways or forcing the grain to move later in the year which creates more issues and delays...

    Look at who farmers help keep people employed with good jobs....graincos, railways , input dealers, fuel, fertilizer chemical industries.

    Put that at risk by not supporting the one guy ( the farmer) that makes it all happen is a questionable strategy in my opinion....

    Supporting guys like Katib and James Cameron with funding that is supposed to help the primary producer and all the while the farm gate prices drop that make those two guys businesses make money is a questionable investment without performance standards on the taxpayers money....simply why are we supporting secondary industries that have the capital behind them already while ignoring the primary producer that starts the process?

    Oil and gas companies are given royalty holidays as they develop their business ....so is potash and don't start on the taxpayer money that went into refineries ( although Devine made a good investment there until it turned into gouging )....

    Farmers are left on there own contrary to the publics belief ...and its interesting that the public never mentions the interest free loans they are being offered in this election cycle...40k interest free for green home renos by the liberals....why?

    I don't get an interest free loan on machinery because its better to the environment or reduces emissions?

      Were trains ordered on an "assumption"? Was the grain sold before it was bought? At what price?

      Many vessels at anchor off the West coast?

        AS a wise man told me yesterday...the demurrage bill is coming to the farm....we can't offer up force majeur on our part....so the shit and the bills flow back to the primary producer...

                Thank You Producer for letting Kevin Hursh DENY climate change, call it the RELIGION it is. Yes the young need to focus/believe in something... none are church goers. Plus a total distraction from REAL LIFE issues.

                  Not sure. My nephew is a millwright. He worked on the original plant and now the expansion. He said it was mentioned that Cameron was no longer an investor.

                    Pretty sure RR don't just drop off cars Willy Nilly, or tell them what to load in cars. Grain Co's head office would have agreed to drop off and be telling local what to put in them.

                      But some points are getting longer than 24 hours to load the trains without penalty....which is a good thing...never understood why a train had to be loaded in 24 hours to sit loaded for a week...and from a safety point it make sense as well...

                            What happened to the surplus of grain.

                            OH, I know there wasn't one.

                            The stats can ****up from years ago just came out of the closet. Like Trudeau will one day.

                            Have a great Saturday, were sitting with a 1/4 inch the other day and nothing dried yesterday.
