Letters to the editor on rural economy agenda
The letter argues a hidden agenda to push Canada toward the American Free Trade vision via federal budget cuts and policy shifts affecting grain marketing and supply management. It warns the timing hits spring planting, risks undercutting the Canadian Wheat Board, and calls for careful review before any changes to subsidies, crop insurance, or two price schemes. The writer urges that farmers’ voices be heard and emphasizes people over profits.
