Goodale blamed for grain bottlenecks and stalled reforms
The piece criticizes Agriculture Minister Ralph Goodale for addressing grain transport delays with rhetoric while leaving the core system intact. It cites idle ships in Vancouver, $15 million demurrage, and $150 million in lost farmer income, urging reforms like Wheat Board deregulation and contracts with penalties to ensure performance. Peter Holle of the Prairie Centre advocates smarter governance.
