Mr. Speaker, I sent a suggestion to the Wheat Board that only people who actually shipped grain should vote. If they have not shipped grain for the last couple of years, for example, maybe they should not be on the voters list. The Wheat Board agreed with me and said that this was a pretty good idea.
The former NDP cabinet minister, Sidney Green, wrote yesterday:
--when the government prohibits the wheat board from using the wheat board treasury to fight against the government position, it is perfectly right to do so....The wheat board is not a privately operated organization that is entitled to use its treasury as it deems advisable.
