The world sees Canada and the US at the same risk level with countries such as Japan and a few others seeing the US to be higher risk.
The "higher risk" of the U.S. has more to do with credibility than anything else---and you have said nothing about that credibility, Bill. Rcalf, myself, farm groups, individuals like flounder, and others have been speaking up about that credibilty gap and yet as a Canadian subserviant to the decisions out of a potentially corrupt USDA, you remain silent. I understand why you do it, but do you think it is right?
My question I posed to rkaiser a long time ago when I asked if Canadians would have their little govt. bailout without the help of Tyson/Cargill was revealing. Producers in Canada have the same problem as producers in the U.S. with these large agribusinesses running the show and politicians taking money and getting influenced by them. You do nothing when you show your lack of integrity when you break down a producer in your chief importing country to help solve this problem. Maybe you have given up on it. It shows which golden rule you really believe in and want to fight for. In short, it shows the depth of your character.
