Did Macdonald move back to Canada and get sticker shock?

Canadians need to pack the Prime Minister's personal fair-share firmly, daily, and relentlsssly, up his spoiled-rotten ass.

Lol , he must have . Or more people, regardless of political stripe, are realizing this is but one huge scam that will never do anything to address â€œclimate changeâ€ but is simply a tax cash grab with zero intention of its actual intent.
If they push to go to $200 / tn the entire economy will be thrown into the Stone Age.

My take from reading this article is that yes Neil M. feels that the government has a great hunger for your tax dollars and the carbon tax is just another tax grab to feed the hungry beast. But there is also an underlying message that is not so obvious. He believes that at least a $200 carbon tax is necessary to change behaviour and I also believe he would support a $200 carbon tax because it will do what it is designed to do in his opinion. The present tax because it is to small and is nothing but a tax grab, in his opinion. My personal opinion is there is no doubt the Lieberals will not stop at $50 a tonne, anyone who believes this is brain dead!

$200 over time takes too much time to pay pressing federal bills.

The real juicy jewel is ag capital-gains exemptions. Think about it. Huge sums of instant cash.

Farmers have to be prepared. Instantly. And have solid rebuttals. And an active lobbying portfolio. And committed firm knowledgeable people to make a stand.

Be prepared. Be proactive instead of last minute scurrying. Be involved. Devote time. Take some cash out of your purse. Ask questions. Don't be a victim.

Agree Pars, they can not be trusted on CG. See a accountant for advice...

Quite a shock to see a CBC reporter publish LIBERANO slamming editorial...heads might roll, or is CBC growing a brain? Turdo could CUT funding...

No FJ.

The Capital gains fight will be a political win or a political loss. Simple. Farmers have to ally and build a strong defense. A strong political defense.

Morneau blinked because the doctors were prepared and launched a media defense. Every. Single. Day. They had a defense, and they trained themselves how to shoot it.

Thank the doctors, Mr. Farmer, they did their homework. We didn't.

Put aside the political party crap and get together and save your life savings. Pars.
