Separate rules

For the last 60 years I have not sold wheat or grain. As such I probably should not be concerned and should not have a vote on the Canadian Wheat Board.

As an observer listening to the reports of some farmers, who seem to consider marketing through the CWB such a bonus, I wonder how the eastern Canadian wheat growers stay in business without being compelled to sell through the CWB.

I also wonder why there is a separate rule for the eastern farmers from the prairie provinces.
