    Last time I checked no real solar powered tractors.

    Trudeau is grasping at straws with his dream.

    It will fit g do or the next 70years till someone figures it out.

      As soon as the subsidies get high enough, I heard that Chuck will be replacing his Cockshutt with a pair of these solar powered tractors.
      With sincerest apologies to any bona fide Farmers using cockshutts, myself included

          If it ever gets built I bet it will never run at nameplate

            Someone at FCL got caught phucking a sheep and AGT has the pictures and videos.

            Those guys are government tit suckers.

            Remember the durum plant?

            And the churchill rail line they were supposed to fix that is now offline for 2 years for repairs.

                Looks like it has something to do with the carbon offset schemes.

                https://www.canada.ca/en/environment-climate-change/services/climate-change/pricing-pollution-how-it-will-work/output-based-pricing-system/federal-greenhouse-gas-offset-system.html

                “
                Federated Co-operatives CEO Scott Banda said his company has made a commitment to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by 40 per cent by 2030 and to get to net-zero emissions by 2050.

                "There's regulatory requirements for that, and it is the right thing to do for the long-term for our economy and for humanity," Banda said.
                “

                  I've lost track. How many canola crush plants is regina getting? Is this a re-announcement or different plant altogether?

                    Well a durum plant and rail line to Churchill were both announced and even money wasted by Harper and Ritz. Would this be a great investment if was secretly done by the Saudi's.
