Once there was no longer a law against it, they could then have gone ahead and abolished the wheat board over the protests of the farmers. But they didn't make that amendment, so it's still the law. While it's still the law, they have to obey it, just like any other law. <br /><br />Well, in theory--they're making a push to simply ignore it, which would set a precedent of the Cons being above the law which I'm sure will make them happy.Purple library guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01930984683714519212noreply@blogger.com
