Mr. Speaker, the government's threat to fire Adrian Measner can only be seen as a Conservative ideological vendetta toward the Canadian Wheat Board and its chief executive officer for doing his job. Farmer elected directors of the board are rallying behind Mr. Measner, holding an emergency meeting and passing a resolution calling on the government to keep him on as CEO.
Canadian producers need power in the marketplace and that is exactly what the Wheat Board provides.
When will the government stop crushing all dissenting opinions and let farmers decide the future of the Wheat Board?
