[QUOTE="ollie, post: 38731, member: 323"] CRR It seems to me that with the labor unions, the exchange rate, the tax rate, and the american business model of being agressive , that the reason they moved the packing plants out was a sound business move at the time. The only way to prevent this movement was to leave the border closed to american investment and free trade. This sounds precisely like the decision that r-calf is wanting made. They would like to leave the border closed from a protectionist viewpoint. ( if you don't believe their argument that Canadian beef is unsafe.) I still think it is the greatest opportunity in my life time to make a fortune. I even p.m.ed you about buying cattle. I actually think the most money to be made would be vertically integrating the beef supply chain now in Canada. Ya'll need to throw in together and find some American partners that have the capital to put together some serious numbers of cattle and make money instead of worrying about who owns slaughter cattle. I never did buy any canadian cattle by the way. The way it looks I would have been calving them next spring in the feedlot. [/QUOTE]
