Mr. Speaker, in an article in the Western Producer the minister of agriculture is quoted as saying that farmers who have sold to the Canadian Wheat Board may have to pay the full freight rate for crops delivered before July 31.
The minister is telling farmers that the WGTA benefit is actually ending before the end of the crop year and not next year as promised in the budget. This is unfair.
Can the minister at least tell western Canadian farmers by what date they must deliver their grain to receive the Crow benefit?
