Pile of grain dumped in front of Conservative candidate's office in Brandon

A pile of grain was dumped in front of Brandon-Souris Conservative candidate Larry Maguire’s office in Brandon, MB overnight Sunday.

It’s not clear why the grain was left.

Gary Standford, the president of the Grain Growers of Canada, told the BNN the new trade deal will be good for Canadian farmers by lifting tariffs and gaining access to 12 major economies including Japan.

In 2011, farmers dumped a pile of grain in front of Conservative MP Merv Tweed's constituency office in Brandon to protest the federal government's decision to move to end the Canadian Wheat Board's monopoly.

Larry Maguire’s office says the grain has been donated to the Canadian Foodgrains Bank.
