Why is it that producers are always the last to get consulted after all the time and money is spent to design these things for farmers. Ask them first what they want it is your money that runs these programs.

How well informed are the majority of farmers about this process....
How many see other issues that are more important....
Its been a very quiet process...some of those involved have said.." how could farmers not know" ...well there was a shitty 2019 harvest and a pandemic lockdown ...
90 minutes to just introduce a section of one module then you get a 233 question survey...can you say time you cant get back..
once again remember this from the WGEA....farmers need to understand that once a grain company buys their grain on the elevator driveway it becomes their property
Why doesn't the CGC enforce the code of practice ( ie the grin act or the CGC regulations)on the grain industry?
You have to remember the so called farmers on the board are wearing two hats ...there are zero non affiliated farmers ...no NGO farmers ...no non commission farmers...
And how the phuck does DU qualify as an NGO????
questions and no answers.
BTW i brought this back to the top because farmers on the roundtable board think all farmers should have known about this...most dont and that was their responsibility to get the word out as part of provincial commissions...

To be clear I think farmers need to start speaking up and telling their commissions to consolidate...
you have something like this code of practice being developed at the same time as the federal government is developing protocols for farming as well with required record keeping and reporting to ECCCC ...
Alot of overlap and for former politicians not to connect the dots or the zoom meeting host not to make the connection after numerous reminders throughout two meeting about having parallel systems...
It just shows that Synthesis is out for a payday...

FFS they don't even go through a portion of the survey to help you understand what they are doing on the survey...
There are 7 modules to this code that you are to read through....then do the survey...Last edited by bucket; Jan 31, 2021, 08:07.

Until I get a reasonable answer on the value of a code of practice in relation to the following it doesnt make sense...
1. How would a code of practice help with an incident like Triffid in the future?
2. How would a code of practice help with market access when you have bobblehead Freeland and Trudeau losing us markets?
3. How does a code of practice help when grainco either don't clean grain or add deershit into a cargo?
4. How does a code of practice help when market access when graincos have claimed it is their grain and it is...its their responsibility?
5. How does a code of practice help when industry sits in on the so called farmer consultation process?
6. How does a none farming entity and so called NGO like DU have so much involvement?
