Trudeau Bin

Image may contain: sky, outdoor and nature











This is what was once called a Trudeau Bin and I helped my dad build several of them 



circa 1968. 

Big yields combined with no quota resulted in a glut of grain on the prairies 

and therefore many farmers were searching for a storage solution for all the grain that c

could not be sold.

 Pierre Trudeau was the Prime Minister at the time...so Trudeau Bin was aptly named as was the

 Bennet Buggy in the 1930's. 


Bennet Buggies were cars that were drawn by horses because of the lack of money to buy
gas. R.B. Bennet was the then Prime Minister.
