Mechanics, Truckers, Warehouse folks, Shop owners, Trades people, nope. None of them work hard or don't have time for silly things like paper work. It's only farmers and their special little snowflake status that deserve to be exempt. For an industry that works so hard, I don't think there is any occupation that is more entitled.

Okay, I've worked under OHS legislation. My family owned a dairy farm in BC also, who has OHS but people who have less than 10 employees on it. Same with Saskatchewan OHS. They get it.
I don't think you understand what farmers are asking... We're not asking for a complete exemption here! At all! We want amendments to it. The same OHS legislation that I worked under will NOT fit farms. I'm not going to wear a freaking hard hat to enter a commercial work space to go feed cows. Forget that. We're asking for a policy review. Entering grain bins, tractors, feeding cows... we want specifics on that and how OHS will deal with that. How is all that so hard to comprehend?
