Here is a history lesson for Dwain Lingenfelter.
Your complaining about Mr. Brad Wall’s budget in regards to the flooded farmers is very interesting. I do have compassion for my fellow farmers who have too much water in their fields and am disgusted that the opposition leader would be so small as to use their circumstances to make political hay.
When you, sir, were in power as deputy premier, your government completely ignored the endless years of drought and low grain prices that we all suffered from.

Soon, many will look at practices such as seeding marginal acres to forage, growing cover crops and livestock integration and ask why they didn’t do this sooner.
Your government stole the Gross Revenue Insurance Plan program from Saskatchewan farmers because it was too rich for the farmer and put the funds into your general revenue.
The premier, Roy Romanow, quit later on and rather than take the opportunity to help your fellow farmers as the new boss of Saskatchewan you chose to run to the oil towers in Calgary and now that you are back we are supposed to believe that you care? Shame on you and your negative politics; it was this very type of negativity that held back this entire province for so many years.
Even the moisture has returned to the southwest with the positive bright outlook Mr. Wall displays on a daily basis. Keep your grumpy complaining ways to yourself; we all are busy enjoying the most prosperous world leading time in the great province’s history.
