We are accepting donations in order to fund the fight to save the Canadian Wheat Board.  

We want to remind everyone that this cause is for our future.  The fight is not over yet.  Hundreds of farm families across Canada have contributed to our cause because they realize that once we lose the Wheat Board we can NEVER get it back according to the NAFTA laws. Working together as farmers, rural citizens and urbanites we can preserve the democratic rights of all Canadians.

IF YOU ARE A FARMER: We think that 25 cents per acre is a reasonable starting point. Some farmers will contribute more, and some will contribute less, but please invest now. A net present value of the CWB easily works out to
more than $15 billion. If you donate $250 or more to support these legal challenges you will automatically be invited to sign on to a Class Action Suit for compensation should one be launched by the Friends of the CWB.

IF YOU ARE NOT A FARMER: All donations are important. Many Canadians have been stepping up to lend thier support. Our current court case is unprecedented. By winning our case we ensure that democratic organizations within a democracy will not have thier rights quashed by subsequent governments.

A receipt will be issued to you for your donation. We do not have charitable status. Many are treating this as a well invested business expense since the losses estimated from losing the single desk CWB are estimated at over $500 million per year.   

Fantastic. What will my Donation be Used For?
The FCWB have to date successfully launched three court challenges to stop the Harper Government’s illegal actions to disenfranchise farmers and dismantle the CWB. The FCWB will shortly be filing additional court challenges to protect farmers’ democratic rights and their financial interests. Democracy is for all Canadians, including Farmers. But protecting democracy through the courts can be very costly. Your donations will support these court challenges, and the Friends are looking seriously at launching a class action compensation suit in the future.
