[QUOTE="cattle_gal, post: 48237, member: 643"] CRR, There's nothing "skewed" about the question. Why don't you tell me what your prices have been for the past 10 years. I have been wondering what they have been up there. What has been your 10 year average? And what were your prices in also in 95 and 96? Why is every thing so hush about past years prices? It would do a ton of good if us here in the US would know what the past history was. All we do know is there wasn't any complaints about how the prices were until the border shut down. And only focusing on this years good prices for us. So let us know what's been going on up there in the past. A 10 year average on culls up to 2003 was $34. And in 2004 we have gotten about $52 for culls. To make a 10 year average $37. And in my previous post I gave the 10 year average for the feeders. The 10 year ave from 1994 to 2004 is $93. Of course there is a difference in prices [u]now[/u]. But if we don't have your past and only have our past prices(espeically when NAFTA got into full swing) and what is happening now with our prices how can we understand what you have been going through. NAFTA is the worst thing that happened - not just for ag but all industries for the US and Canada. It isn't fair trade. I'm not much on socialisim so I beleive that a country should take care of there own. Not rely on outside countries to suport them. And the leaders of this country are trying to make it a one world economy. And make you and us as one county. Which we aren't. And the same with subsities. The gov tells people they can't do this or that, but hey they'll give out a few dollars to help because of there restrictions. I hope that the US buyers who pushed for the border to close and then bought the Canandian cattle when the border shut down loose their shirt. They played both sides of the issue. If your going to be on one side of the issue stick with it. Inflation is horrible. When we and I'm sure you too get prices that might have kept up with the rest of the retail world 20 years ago but doesn't even come close now. [/QUOTE]
