    Seriously...What are the farm groups doing?????

    The last thing I heard was they were patting the federal government on the back for more loans if you qualify and thanking them for a loan extension which should have been done last Novemeber...

    Nothing the liberals announced wasn't already in the works during the last election..

    So while businesses are getting 2 years to pay back an interest free loan and getting a 25 percent grant at the end ....what the phuck are farmers getting to help them ?

    Why is every farm group so silent ?

    Why is the carbon tax still the flavour of the day for some?

    Why doesnt the province step up and fight on behalf of farmers or support them?

    Why are the conservative MPs not making more noise on behalf of western Canadian farmers while there is a chance to get things straightened out or would that be like admitting they phucked it all up in the first place?

    When i hear farmers and others say farmers have to be businessmen and forget about it being a lifestyle.....


    It sure seems like everyone has defaulted to " its a lifestyle not a business " when it shit hits the fan...

    And business that shit on farms 99 days out of 100 sure couldn't act like a business very long when shit hit the fan.... tell those businessmen their business is a lifestyle....and find a banker that will lend on nothing because that is what their are worth...because banks wouldn't do the loans without the government backing...

    Just in a really pissed off mood today ....the cu ckoo bird will be out at 9:15 to repeat himself...

    Parliament in session on Saturday and the MPs that should be representing us are silent....

    And gas is still posted 79.9 locally....

    And since when is c u c k o o a bad word that it has to be edited ??????? Censoring is beginning to piss me off as well as making up a new language because of it.

      The problem with farm groups compared to other business like bombardier and SNC is they have lawyers instead of some group representing them!

        The real problem is the farm groups are just like politicians, they all have great ideas and then the corrupt/ignorant old ones that have been on the kitty for awhile tell the new ones to shut it and go along with the flow. Pretty soon the new ones get their little brown bag or perks and say this ain’t too bad.

        SNC and bombardier get perks because they employ thousands of people. We as farmers are like 25000 bombardier employing one person. And we all cannot get along long enough to act like we have our crap together to get any funding.

        Also, I agree bucket about the businesses not being able to run for a month or two without govt cash! when this is all over and when you see all the Facebook crap about buy local etc etc. I am pretty sure I am buying local with my tax dollars so they can sit on their asses right now.

            It is unreal how in areas farms are surviving with half of the crop out for what is shaping up to be 7 months....no help from FCC etc with better interest rates or anything. Some of these businesses are going on week 2 and already going broke and getting loans...it is pretty sad.

                i know what i am doing about it . I have set alarms on my phone so i don't miss the application date to get MY fu king money back. thats what they want you to do , thats why most of their dates are when i am busy.
                i am getting every god damn cent back and hopefully someone will come up with a real farmer representative group that is voluntary , not forced like these commy outfits
                i am also telling RM reps to vote out APAS also
                a few years back ,a local person tried to get on one of the commissions , and the incumbents all got together and supported each other to discredit local person , and it was effective. the trough feeding time is over for me . they all showed their true colours last two years

                  You do not have to wait until the deadline to submit the refund forms. As long as they receive it during the crop year, you will be put on the list for a cheque. Submit away. Thank me later....

                    FCC is busy giving away your money to “worthy” urban projects.
