This poster overlooks the 'conference' table out back of the tack room near the stables where all the big decisions regarding the running of the ranch are taken by the members of the partnership. Besides the political message in itself, I found it quite interesting as an example of the Canadian approach to politics generally.
At least in Alberta and British Columbia it seems that everyone, regardless of age, gender or political persuasion has a grave distrust of government and a willingness to dissent, regardless of who is in power. This applies more to federal, less to provincial, and least to county governments, but is evident throughout. A healthy state indeed for a democracy.
The cattlemen are no different.
