Guaranteed Farm Income welched as nonsense by Manitoba minister
Manitoba Agriculture Minister Sam Uskiw dismissed the idea of a guaranteed annual income for the prairie grain industry as nonsense. He told about 400 farmers at the annual farm outlook conference that income stability cannot work on a regional basis and must target individual farmers. He said Manitoba will present an alternative plan to Ottawa focusing on individual incomes and criticized parts of federal proposals on income support and wheat reserves.
