Duties on Canadian Wheat entering the US. From 13.55% to 14.16%. The Wheat Board challenges from Stateside have finally broken through. (I wonder if they will challenge the rail rates, the subsidies and loan right offs to the CNR that have to benefit Canadian industry as well as farming, and the highway system that provides good transportation between farm communities. Might as well include environment Canada for predicting rain, and agriculture Canada for doing research and providing free advice. It all provides an advantage. And how about EI? Liberal immigration policies that provide cheap farm labour? The telephone that keeps farm wives entertained.. can't discount that. Look at those phone bills, the local rates mandated by the government keeps long distance rates low, or is the other way around.. either way its some kind of subversive subsidy.) I think we should slap a duty on US horse manure drifting north of the 49 at say, ten dollars a ton, and we could probably offset the losses from countervailing stinko duties of not-so-free trade in a matter of weeks.
