    If you cannot attend or are distant from the locations coppertop posted or suffer from a case of pearfay ofway ublicconsultaionspay
    (the fear of public consultations and wasting an entire day waiting for your time to present,I suffer from this affliction)

    But it is worthwhile and important to participate.

      cowman, I would suggest that positive input will go a lot further than giving anyone hell. The folks that facilitate this sort of information gathering session aren't the legislators.

        I would hope there is a strong case made for expansion of the biofuel industry? That truly is the "hot" topic right now!
        I would hope they don't get bogged down by "yesterdays news" of exporting grain or cattle and hogs? Or value adding...the hottest value adding right now is turning food into gasoline and deisel!
        There is a revolution coming in agriculture and I think it is very exciting? Mr. Bush pretty well assured that last night with his state of the union address? Once again we are going to produce something the consumer wants and become useful contributors to the nation, instead of perpetual welfare bums!

          I wont be going as I have had my fill of consultation meetings over the yrs and my profesional opinion is that the answer was already wrote now they need the optics of public perticipation and I wont change my mind until I see some posative results. I know it is bad to be a cinic but you kind of get used to being rightall the time.

            Horse: I guess I will join the cynic club right along with you! But I think you can voice your opinion, or even sort of follow along on the website?

              Grassfarmer, did you make it to the consultation today? Unfortunately, I did not go as I did not want to get out on those roads again. I was in Edmonton yesterday and it took me over 4 hours to get home. Welcome to winter in Alberta.

              I am curious to know what happened there, so if you can impat anything that would be great.
