I’m writing this letter to encourage agriculture minister Gerry Ritz and to tell him we’re behind the Conservatives and can’t wait to be able to sell our wheat and barley into the open market.
I don’t care what the Canadian Wheat Board’s survey said. I did not participate in it because I don’t think anybody can tell us what we can do with our private property, regardless what the majority of farmers want.
Respect of private property is fundamental in a civil society. Twenty percent of God’s 10 commandments deal with it and therefore I know it’s crucial. The pro-single desk people are mostly driven by envy and jealousy. In other words, they are afraid of their neighbours getting more dollars per bushel than they are.
The open market is the only system that I can support as a God fearing Catholic and I thank you, Mr. Ritz, and the Conservatives, for doing what is right.
