I sated back some 20 odd years ago, that the farmer, should be alowed to strike. Up here in Canada, farming is getting tuffer, and tuffer to make it ,and to get a head, with the high rising fuel costs, fertilizer,and seed, and getting less and less for our product. Up here we martched up on parlament hill, but for 1 day. Other times for one day as well. As far as I'm concerned, all that did was make the public mad at the farmer.

We have a thanklees job, and not getting paid much for our efforts. And so does the truck driver. Thanks. This is my opinion anyway. What is your opinion?
