In 10 years it will be the Canadian Wheat Board by another name


Ending the Canadian Wheat Board's international sales' monopoly will, because it will increase competition among Canadian sellers, reduce the netback to western Canadian farmers. The Conservative Goverment's legislation to end the Board is simply misplaced ideology. Ending the sales' monopoly is good conservative philosophy but poor modern-world business.

In 10 years we will have the CWB by another name, and a new mess to clean up.
