OPINION (click for original letter): producer.com
A few days ago I received a phone call from a Canada Competition Bureau agent with reference to the recent acquisition of 10 former Louis Dreyfus Company elevators by Parrish and Heimbecker.
The Competition Bureau has recently filed an application to order P&H to sell either their current Moosomin location or their newly purchased Virden elevator. The reason given is that P&H now controls two elevators along 180 kilometres of Highway No. 1, putting area producers at a perceived competitive disadvantage.

The ABCD companies are thought to control about 70 per cent of the global grain trade, so when Louis Dreyfus recently sold its grain handling network in Canada to Parrish and Heimbecker, it made me think how much times have changed.
