Seventh installment in our PMO Photo Op Caption Contest. This one’s extra special because it involves an appearance Dear Leader made in Regina last Friday to attend Alliance Grain Traders Inc.’s announcement that it was building a $50 million mill to process durum wheat and pulse crops like peas and lentils out at the Global Transportation Hub.
In his remarks, the PM cited it as an example of the type of benefits that await western Canada once single-desk marketing under the Canadian Wheat Board is ended. He also … well, I’ll leave it to you to describe what else he did.

“Each of these little garbanzo beans represent the wishes, desires, and livelihoods of Canadian farmers and the CWB Directors…I wish I had a toilet to sprinkle these into instead of this stupid Persian-inspired rucksack container.”
“So we put these rocky beads into the ground, cover them with chemicals, then wait for them to transform into fodder for our stomachs? You humans are fascinating. I mean, we’re fascinating. We. We humans. Of which I am definitely one. Sorry, it looks like I just bit off your finger. So sorry. It looked so delicious.”

Balls my favorite shape!
I tried hummus once. It was Laureen’s idea. Didn’t much care for it, though.
