My “Hay, It wasn’t all Bad News” award goes to… the organizers of the Hay West campaign.

In a rare display of inter-regional East-West solidarity in Canada, Eastern farmers attempted to “bale” western farmers out of the throws of one of the biggest droughts to hit the area since the Dust Bowl years of the Great Depression.  Notably absent from this initiative were the Federal politicians and their agencies who were late to board the gravy train (but not too late for the photo-shoots).
