Strike and Counter Strike...

I haven't had time to research the latest on the Canadian Wheat Board and last week's house activity....BUT .... I did see an interview last week from the CEO of the CWB on ....Report on Business! As well, early this week there were questions in the house about the latest government move against the CWB and her farmers, on CPAC. CPAC also interviewed the Minister after question period and that was certainly pointed on the part of the Minister. It is evident how they intened to play this issue from his comments. Words like 'monopoly, choice, freedom,' are peppered throughout.
The Minister also makes a point about the CWB's job is to market grains and they had better "market". Of course his point is that they have no business doing anything else (even if their farmers want them too)!
I will provide the links as soon as I am able to get them. - cg
