Inky:
You know I'm with you on all this. My first thoughts when I first saw that he was an AE was - I wonder how much he's getting funneled through him? And of course I'm wondering what value he adds to the equation - "extensive sales network", "branch offices scattered around the globe", "freight sharing"....

My point earlier was - what's the point about the mining connection?

Dunno..

Maybe 500 farmers should apply to be an A/E - get turned down and start a class action?

The least they'd get is $1000.00 for the stress of not being able to be an A/E.

Chaff,

"My point earlier was - what's the point about the mining connection? "

I guess Machej himself made it a point of curiosity, or he wouldn't have listed urianaresources on his website:

http://www.memberservicecenter.org/irmweb/wc.dll/mbwincoc?id=mbwincoc&doc=rol/rol1/listing&kn=21470

Why would he list it?

Go to Google
Type in Tony Porraccio

He's a director on Eagle Sterling(Machej's company)
along with Power Corporation etc.

Eagle Sterling is a very successful accredited agent.

The website noted under Sterling's corporate listing is no longer active.

In 2004 Iriana Resources were "amalgamated" with Polaris Geothermal. SO I don't think it exists anymore.

Machej does not connect with Polaris at all.

I think the zebra is dead.

Find who he sells wheat to - then you'll get my attention.

Chaff,

I should have written it more clearly in case some didn't click the link:

#1
TMAC 2007 is written at the bottom of the website, so it is current.

Porracio is a director on TMAC for Eagle Sterling(Machej's company),Hydro-Québec sits on TMAC, along with Power Corporation, the CWB, Export Development Canada,Int'l Development Research Centre, Royal Canadian Mint, Farm Credit Canada, etc.

Because Tony Porraccio represents Eagle Sterling at the TMAC boardtable, he represents a CWB accredited agency.

I think farmers are interested in who/what represents the accredited agency.

#2 The CWB lists Eagle Sterling as an accredited agency. They did not mention Mr. Machej as the contact. Instead, they listed 'Trading Desk' as the contact.

So, it was natural to search who Eagle Sterling really is. Gordon Machez is listed as the contact for Eagle Sterling. Machez thought it was important enough to designate irianaresources as his URL on the Eagle Sterling contact sheet. Not me. He did.

Iriana Resources is no longer active, but because Mr. Machez originally made a the link to Iriana, he must have thought it was important enough for an CWB accredited agency to connect with Iriana Resources.

As you say, it is Iriana mining company, which amalgamated with Polaris.

Why did Mr. Machez himself originally link a mining company with wheat sales?

That's a strange union, but I guess it is most logical to search where Eagle Sterling ships its' wheat and intersect it with where there WAS Iriana Mining, if one has enough curiosity.
