Mr. Speaker, how long does this minister plan to consult? Already a commissioner has resigned from the wheat board in disgust because of the way barley is being handled by the board. He said that there is a very narrow fringe that rejects outright any compromise on this issue, a very narrow fringe of which the government is a part.
When will the minister catch up with farmers who know that the monopoly power of the wheat board is hurting their interests,
abandon this fringe position and hold a plebiscite on ending the monopoly of wheat board marketing?
