The Conservative government, unlike any other government in the history

Agriculture committee  Mr. Hursh and Mr. Boehm, thank you. Kevin, thank you for that balanced answer. I remember hearing about the Alliance Grain Traders who were going to suddenly open up a plant out west, and as soon as the Canadian Wheat Board was dismantled, all of a sudden

Agriculture committee  All right. Can you talk about value-added industry out west and what's happening? I know commitments were made around the time of the Wheat Board transition that weren't fulfilled by, I think, Alliance Grain Traders, and I know there is some extra canola being crushed. Can you

Agriculture committee  On the Wheat Board windup and the $184.2 million that has been allocated for that, I know that at the time of the windup there were certain moneys that were retained by the Canadian Wheat Board from the pooled funds. They retained earnings for future applications. I think

First Nations Financial Transparency Act   have gone against what the public wanted. I could give a number of examples of that, whether it is the Canadian Wheat Board or some of the refugee legislation that was introduced. When we are passing legislation dealing with our first nations, there is that much more

Agriculture committee   seeds, and the new crushers that are being built. I began thinking about how much value-added there really is in the grain industry. We heard that when we were getting rid of the Wheat Board; we heard that this was going to be an opportunity for all these new companies to start up

Agriculture committee  I understood, as many did on this committee, that with the demise of the Wheat Board we'd see a rush, a huge growth in processing in value-added industry out west. I remember the Alliance Grain Traders saying that they were going to open a pasta plant, and then that didn't

Jobs and Growth, 2012  . In this budget, in the previous budget and in budgets to come, do the Conservatives have a bit of a plan of privatizing rural Canada, of taking services out of rural Canada, whether it is Parks Canada, the EI changes, what they are doing to fisheries and what they did with the Wheat Board

Jobs and Growth, 2012   years from now? What will it look like? A great deal of trust that many farmers had was lost because of the way the government dealt with the Canadian Wheat Board. Many are looking at the government and are somewhat fearful in regard to the Canadian Grain Commission. That is why I

Jobs and Growth Act, 2012  Mr. Speaker, I would like to congratulate the member for not mentioning the Canadian Wheat Board in his speech, which, as I have told him several times, is really a red hot issue in my riding. The member mentioned small business a number of times. I would like to ask him

Jobs and Growth Act, 2012  Mr. Speaker, in all of the intense debates over the last 25 years about the contentious issue of the Canadian Wheat Board, I often said that an even more crucial matter was the Canadian Grain Commission. The Grain Commission is that agency in our grain marketing system

Agriculture and Agri-Food   that the minister claimed that no products reached store shelves? The incompetence of both the Minister of Health and the Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food and Minister for the Canadian Wheat Board knows no bounds. Truck drivers knew there was a problem and meat cutters knew

International Trade committee   principle as what happened at the Canadian Wheat Board committee. You know that. Deadlines are imposed, proper debate is not given, and parliamentarians and parties.... You're shot down to parties now. We're all elected in our own right, but you're down to parties. Can the parliamentary

International Trade committee  —but I do want to speak on this. I would ask the parliamentary secretary to reconsider this motion. I've only seen this motion once before, and I've been around here a while. The place I've seen it was the committee discussing the Canadian Wheat Board legislation, which
