The WFP had this little gem of an article on the CWB battle.
First, notice that the 7 wheat farmers elected to the House of Commons all belong to the same party. They also all support the elimination of the CWB.
So, which politicians should we trust on the CWB: the western wheat farmers who were elected by rural populations, or an urban union man?
Second, that the opposition parties would even have the gall to argue that eliminating the CWB will provide benefits to wheat farmers so as to better position themselves in voting against it speaks a lot.
As for the mandatory CWB issue as a whole the only question worth asking is this:
Should farmers be imprisoned for selling their own crops?
