Excerpt from Canadian Wheat Marketing To Canadian wheat producers, this kind of market ing was not new. It evolved from an elevator monopoly prior to 1917 and to Prairie wheat cooperatives in the 1920's and' early 1930's, and was primarily in response to their demand for improved marketing conditions. The Canadian Wheat Board has given the farmers a greater bargaining power than they as individuals or even as cooperatives would ever possess. Grading and inspection, which have gone along way toward giving Canadian wheat its high reputation, are in the hands of the Board of Grain Commissioners, an agency of the Department of Agriculture.
