flamey - thats pretty wrong thing to state about most farming whether in canada or europe.
Here in the UK and a lot of other european countries (minus France) most of farming gets diddly squat in subsidies and help, plus they're getting the same market price for their beef and lamb as 25 years ago!!
Simply put, it costs more to produce meat than they get back...
i've been involved in farming in devon for a while now; its really heart breaking to see traditional ways of life and culture dissappear so quickly becuase of governmental idiocy...
*sorry for going off the wheat topic here
