    The Ag Industry provides a living for more than just the actual Producers!

        ....but but but, it will only get capitalized into land or machinery(Bourgault drills and quadtracs). Or used to pay for inputs.

        NEWSFLASH that's already been done!

        Inputs and machinery purchases support those businesses. What's wrong with buying land? Its weather and politically ****ed up grain markets that are the problem, both of which are out of the farmer's control.

            Do they care if cattle producers have to cull early or sell off parts of their herd?
            Got email yesterday, cow/calf producer near Saskatoon desperately looking for pasture for 200 pairs. You got the grass, you name the price. Doesn't matter if he has to truck them 800 miles away.

            First one of many?

                So hypothetically, a majority government in Canada whose leader developed a mental disorder for one reason or the other and started to make decisions that are considered odd by most, could technically bankrupt the country, or do these huge financial commitments have to be passed by the senate.

                  Spending has no oversight in Canada like the US does. Skippy can take out 1 trillion dollar line of credit and give it to Trevor Noah and we couldn't do squat about it until an election.

                    God help us all, this Liberal government has demonstrated to many of us that it wants to severely punish the taxpayers of this country in order to retain power, I'm really surprised there aren't more Liberal MP's following their moral compass and announcing they won't be running for reelection this fall . . . . . . . I feel that being involved in politics, over time your conscience would become weak and anemic from lack of use . . . . . . we'll see who has an active and healthy conscience in the coming months.

                      Just announced he has increased spending to $1.4B for Women’s Reproduction. In other countries. Holy cow, is he out of touch.
                      And also just announced that MMIW equates to genocide. How does (vastly predominantly) native men abusing native women equate to genocide?
