The Wheat Board and Conservative Manipulation
Is there any doubt that if it was put to a vote by farmers that the Wheat Board would remain?
From CBC:
So what do the conservatives have to say about this 80% endorsement of the single desk system?The results of the Canadian Wheat Board election are in, and it appears those who want to maintain the board's monopoly over exports of Prairie wheat and barley have come out on top.
Five of the 10 farmer-director spots were up for grabs and, according to one of the successful candidates, four out of the five elected on Sunday support the existing "single-desk" system for marketing grain.
Arrrrrrrggggggggg!
"Farmers are divided on this, I think," Strahl said.
So much for democracy
