CWB Grey Cup Party
Rolf Penner-I just pulled this clip from a you tube video about grey cup celebrations.
Now at first I thought, oh well, so what, CWB staff deserve to have a little fun every now and then just like everybody else, right.
Then I remembered that according to their latest annual report the average salary of these folks is just over $91,000 per year. Then I remembered this chart which shows how I’m getting the worst basis ever for my wheat this year, and this chart which shows how these folks have not been able to beat even the simple average price in the US for malt barley over the last eight years. And then I thought about how stressed out these folks supposedly were last year that they needed a special $1000 bonus. And on top of all this they have the nerve to title their annual report “Farmers First”. What it really should say is “farmers first, unless there’s a football game this weekend”.
