    Interesting.
    To grow MORE bushels for cheaper malt/beer. 1.5 cents per can/bottle is too much to pay the grower! Everybody wins but us!

      Been applying for several years now from everyone. Pay for a hot holiday for yourself rather than someone else. Ask yourself what you have gotten from any of them. What pushed me over the edge on all these was the Canola Councils “Big Hairy Audacious Goal” of 15 million tonnes by 2015. Think about that, our own money being used to flood our own market. Imagine Apple paying an association fee per unit sold that was used to flood the market with IPads. If you don’t apply for a refund you are part of the problem, they interpret this as grower approval. Were they able to help with Carbon tax on grain drying? Trade issues with China?, Seed size pricing? Nope.

            Wow.....hopefully there doesn’t end up with an alfalfa “seed tax” on top of the levy.

              Starting tomorrow...

              Levy Refund
              Your levy may be refunded annually upon request and is based on your canola sales for the period of August 1 to July 31.

              Levy Refund Application Process
              Contact our office and we will send you the current year's levy refund application form.
              A separate application form must be submitted for each producer or business requesting a refund.
              The form must have a personal name or business name and complete mailing address.
              Application forms must be signed. Unsigned forms will be returned.
              If you are mailing your application form, phone the number on the form to confirm receipt.
              Applications for refunds may be submitted to SaskCanola anytime during the crop year (August 1 to July 31), and must be received no later than August 31 of the year in which you are requesting your refund.

              By regulation, SaskCanola has no authority to process a late application.

                Maybe some day they will advance their technology and use fax machines.

                    They send you the form electronically, email. Just haven't opened it yet to see if you have to print and mail in the rebate application or digitally fill out a form and forward it to an email address.

                    SaskWheat can be printed off their website.

                    Saskflax mails theirs.

                    Can't speak to others because I don't grow barley and pulses are non-refundable
