Agriculture committee  That's always a heated topic with the strikes we've been dealing with, and being on different lines, and having different lines we tend to ship to. My closest delivery point is 45 miles. At this point in time, it doesn't make a difference, when I put it on a truck, whether it goes 45 miles or 145 miles, as long as it gets moved.

Agriculture committee  Thank you for your question. Although it's hard to grasp how to build a long-term policy, I think you have to start with the basics. Within your policy there may be changes, depending on markets and conditions. But if we don't have something to bank on that we know will be there as we build our operations....

Agriculture committee  Thank you, Mr. Chair and committee members. My name is Rob Brunell. I'm a grains and oilseeds producer in the province of Manitoba, about two and a half hours straight west of here, on the shores of another lake in this province, Lake Dauphin. From being the chair of the Young Farmers Committee, sitting on the Canadian Young Farmers Forum board, and talking with young producers across Canada, I think there are a few key points I'd like to make.
