Carbon tax

[Oliver88]

I think APAS did all they could to fight the carbon tax, the provincial Sask government is currently challenging it at the Supreme Court.
It would be good to hear some negative (GFO style) ads during the next federal election.

Trudeau, Booboo, McKenna, Goodale (NFU advising him) wanted to punish us because they hate farmers, energy industry, Western Canada. 🖕🏻

Absolutely, I've said that many times, real hate on for primary producers of anything!
And F*CK U NFU and friends!
And only getting WORSE with bastard Climate scaremongers like these... https://weatherfarm.com/2020/11/changes-to-food-system-needed-to-slow-global-warming/ https://weatherfarm.com/2020/11/changes-to-food-system-needed-to-slow-global-warming/

There was a simple solution that Scott Moe and Brad Wall could have implemented and chose not to. That was designing a carbon tax system that rebated all the carbon tax farmers paid on drying grain or charging no carbon tax at all on grain drying.

In their wisdom the Sask Party chose not to impose a made in Saskatchewan system, even though they have a carbon tax on large emitters.

So you can send a thank you to Scotty Moe for preferring to play east west political games instead of making good decisions. It seems as they don't have to make good decisions, because they take the farm vote for granted.

The answer is they don’t give a shit about farmers it was worth more to them politically to make this grandstand symbolism of defiance which they knew they would lose anyway. They got the stooges votes and farmers suffer to pay.
Although if they were in charge do you really think they would have rebated it or pocketed it into general revenue?

I’m sure the dweeb from the NDP would have done the same.

Chuck2 on one hand I agree that they could have done that but I believe supporters of the Sask Party wanted it abolished. Also please show me a NDP platform from anywhere in Canada that suggests not taxing natural gas or propane for grain drying! Rachel Notley in Alberta certainly has no such policy!

I think it would have been better for our own provincial government to be in control of it? In theory why wouldn’t there have been a rebate? Anyone know?

If anyone knows and tells you, would you believe them or just go on another insane, hateful rant, as is your usual response when faced with reality?
