… and you think we have problems with those running our country!
For those of you who don't know, cattle guards are horizontal steel rails placed at fence openings, in dug-out places in the roads adjacent to highways (sometimes across highways), to prevent cattle from crossing over that area. For some reason, the cattle will not step on the "guards," probably because they fear getting their feet caught between the rails.
A few months ago, Prime Minister Trudeau, received and was reading a report that there were over 100,000 cattle guards in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba. The ranchers had protested his proposed changes in grazing policies, so he ordered the Minister of Agriculture to fire half of the "cattle" guards immediately!
Before the Minister of Agriculture could respond and presumably try to straighten Prime Minister Trudeau out on the matter, Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland intervened with a request that...before any “cattle" guards were fired they be given six months of retraining. 'Times are hard,' said Chrystia Freeland. it's only fair that the cattle guards and their families be given six months of retraining! '
And these two people are running Canada!!!

"for Kraken especially"
Based on his cut and paste - no thought postings, I don't think Kraken got this.
BTW - very funny.

I was born in Saskatchewan and from the age of four I knew what a cattle guard was but we all called it a Texas gate.
