    Cowman,

    Somewhere the CWB permit book system must have you listed as an intrested party who is entitled to a share of grain.

    What this means is that your acres are being counted likely in a neighbours permit book, with your name listed in that permit book.

    If you really do not have an agreement with anyone, then you could simply write the CWB with the legal land discriptions, and I am sure they would be deleted from any book they are not supposed to be in.

    This is a big problem because so many suffixes are in Permit books that many farmers get to vote 3 or 4 times!

    The running joke was vote early and vote often!

    Quite a way to run the show isn't it?

      cowman, you're alive!!! I heard that in the first election, dead people got ballots. Maybe things are improving. Can you imagine the number of ballots that would go to nursing homes, cause grandad still hadn't legally finished handing over the farm?
      Chatney does a whale of a job....he listens and writes it down. Some of them seem there to spiel their memorization lesson that the Board has given them. If they do a good job, maybe they get on another something I heard called fivehundredaday committee.

        Cowman,

        I think that Jim Chatenay earns all the $500/ day payments he gets. They sure hassle him to the end for doing what District 2 elected him for, a voluntary CWB, marketing choice.

        I am glad that you see fit to use your vote wisely, and now that Rod Flaman is at the CWB Jim at least has someone to second his motions to get them discussed!

        Jim and Rod are negotiating to get marketing choice, and I sure appreciate their common sense approach to working through these problems, and dedication to the subject! These guys will be a tuff combination to stop, especially if they stick together!

          Flaman is doing a good job. And Chatney with his win margin has proved he's doing a good job. And both work hard to serve those who elected them. Both Chatney and Flaman were elected by constituents who supported choice marketing. Maybe a good thing for the present would be for both their Districts to be able to get no-cost export licenses. Doesn't that seem what those electors indicated they wanted and needed?
