    I am not voting conservative this time around. We need to get the wheels in motion to split this failed experiment of a nation.

      bucket, you need to take a much closer look how Canada is structured politically. Conservative representation is mostly muted by the lefty commies in this country. I am not sure what you want them to do?

      When the MSM covers the drought its under the guise of climate change and farmers bringing this one themselves. Do you remember Fort McMurray? The hub of Canadas number one export revenue was chastised as it burned by that same crowd.

      You wont find any sympathy for this industry from govts or the citizens and we need to accept that reality and govern our affairs accordingly.

      You also need to accept thats its probable that the CPC will never be in power again in this country so you cna expect what little representation we do have to dwindle even more.

          Jazz "muted by the lefty commies in this country" Huh? LOL

          Translation: Conservatives have declining support because they are so far out of touch with a large majority of Canadian voters.

          Otoole is trying to move them into the 21st century, but with little luck.

          Whack a mole time! Guys like Jazz get the whack first and often.

            Agriculture is big bucks, feast to famine, economically, GDP, etc
            Urban Canada has forgotten, didn't know, (don't care) etc the economic impacts of agriculture

            I think i heard only 4% of the vote is rural in Canada, i know why there is no financial support etc, i get it. Consolidation ( grain handling, ag retail, etc), industry moving to usa( meat packers, manufacturing, etc) carbon tax, etc we will have to look after our selves and organize ( not on agriville). The ag sector in western Canada will never be a “France, or Iowa” no votes.

            At this point i hope Drew comes through with a wet September

              Andjelic to the rescue?

              Lets let all the big time operators and investor like Andjelic take over and own all the land, then we can all enjoy what farming and rural life was like before many of our ancestors headed for America.

                this farmer in the last provincial election supported the Buffalo Party.. Moe has taken the Sask Party to the left and has encouraged Federal Liberal supporters to run for the Sask Party.. I will not vote Liberal, I don't care what banner they run under.

                O'Fool has done the same with the Conservative Party... and regardless what mainstream party is in power Federally, they all bend over for Quebec.. The west needs to set the wheels in motion and start exerting it's will. The only way to do that is have a completely Western Party... a fractured parliament will work in western Canada's favour just like it does for Quebec... I'm voting Maverick

                  rare, in the last election some alt media types went into Toronto and found a lot of people who didnt know we had an oil industry that contributes almost 20% if our GDP.

                  When the interviewers explained that fact to them, then they wanted it shut down because climate change.

                  There are millions of obtuse, narrow minded idiots in this country that think an economy based on flipping houses and govt handouts is enough and we will never get through to them.

                    Brilliant. You and Burnt types can split the vote and allow that Trudeau loon to get back with a majority this time. Lack of Covid vaccine must be affecting your brain cells. Or is the Alliance Church injecting some weird doctrine?

                      Vote splitting absolutely, never has the divide between rural and urban been larger.
