Cattlemen - have you realized the saskparty doesnt care?

[bucket]

So it is safe to say that cattlemen vote for the sask party .

Can anyone comment as to why the money isn't flowing yet from the announcements 16 days ago?

Its pretty disappointing to see the saskparty ignore the issue.

Any agriculture producer that thinks politicians are there for them are delusional. Doesn’t matter if it’s cattle, pigs or durum.

I would hesitate to say farmers are hurting yet. If you need the money that quickly sorry to say you probably won't make it.

Then lets all have the same opinion about the half trillion dollars spent for other industries and the average canadian...

Seems they were not going to let them fail???????????????????

Point being why make an announcement if they don't know how to get it out.

And when the industries associated with the cattle guys are having difficulty ...make sure they are on their knees before anything happens or like a guy reads in the comment section of CBC ...let them go broke.

Sheesh.

Tell that to the guys selling cows...because the disaster relief wasn't responsive.

A person was in meetings with crop insurance and lenders discussing the program.Crop insurance said they too busy with grains to start on that yet.Said field people will count cows then you may need a preg test certificate on how many actually bred to get final amount.Personally I think they have not really figured out what their supose to do yet.All they need is a number from the farmer and a signature.Then do some spot checking to keep everone honest.Simple is good.So far this program does not sound simple.

You’re right not simple but rather stupid as
Usual. Agristability type mentality next
Thing black cows maybe eat less than red cows
So get only a percentage and heaven help if you
Have a sand cow no one will know what to think.

At least there has been an announcement of some sort, as far as I know Manitoba has not announced anything!

Pumps for the irrigation project!

[sumdumguy]

Pathetic, how can a government be so out of touch? Average Joe wouldn’t even know who is Ag minister, seems like maybe he/she is non-verbal?

Well, dummies are usually non-verbal, aren't they?

Yup probably right ..they had open houses about irrigation during a drought where most of the people have no crop...And they make promises that most of the farmers will be retired or out of business before the project is built.


Don't kid yourselves...Cor Van Ray didn't set up in Outlook/ Conquest area just because. He seen an opportunity to lend his name to building stuff like in Alberta but most of it was with government money.

The legacy will continue and bleeding government agencies in the name of progress, is the game.

First off , you have to consolidate the area to a few like minded individuals. Check

Second , get government officials brainwashed into the field of dreams mantra....check.

Third , get stupid ministers to sign off on using taxpayers money...check



Not necessarily in that order but you get the drift.

The bulls and open cows have been chewing the grass down to the roots along side the pregnant cows. They should be covered too! Gonna be more open cows this year as cows have lost condition.

Exactly...And why not Bulls being covered? You can't have bred cows without bulls. I guess governments haven't learned that yet...even with all their phucking around.

Herd reductions mean less bulls needed next year...puts a hurt on the purebred guys that help maintain the quality in our herds.
