Poultry Talk Ontario (pto.ca)

I hate turning on the news at night because now every evening that sour old puss of an orange comb over face is scowling back at me. I hated that show he had and now we have to put up with this for at least four more years. Now he wants to target our dairy farmers, I guess that's because he accidentally sent his war ships to Australia instead of Korea, one suggestion is geography comes in handy when you are president.

Our guys need to explain the system better, we only produce what we need, and people can't jump in and out of dairy farming, this way the dairy farmers at least get to make a decent living. Big business, especially American big business will never be happy until we are all making minimum wage.

Lets not forget the protection that the dairies and cheese-makers get from a secure supply of milk and the knowledge that it is hard for new upstart processors to get into the market. Lets not forget the transport companies. Everybody in the supply chain is making better money than the Americans. If we scrap the marketing boards the large dairy farms will get larger and hire temporary foreign workers to do the grunt work. The few true family operated family farms (defined by family members providing most of the labour) will have a hard time competing with that.
