More on the CWB

Some farmers are calling on a referendum on the Canadian Wheat Board's monopsony on wheat and barley sales. Responds Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz, we already had a vote on the future of the CWB. "It's called a general election," says Ritz.

So, in conclusion, the last chance you had to consult with this Government was May 2. They'll see you again October 2015 for their performance review.

"Monopsony" - you build my vocabulary! :)

And yes, very pithy dismissive response from Ritz.
