Provinces back CWB future vote with producer voice
Saskatchewan Agriculture Minister Mark Wartman and Manitoba minister Rosann Wowchuk urge Ottawa to let producers decide the fate of the Canadian Wheat Board. They warn a dual market would undermine Western Canada's role in the world market and hurt farmers, railways, terminals, and trade with the United States. They praise a five‑organization producer coalition to study CWB options and insist no unilateral changes occur without a producer vote.
