We all know why supply management exists.
Like unions they've become too powerful.

Nothing left but well off farmers compared to the rest of the population.

In other news consumers subsidize union wage rates with another strike and %100 tariff on Chinese EVs.

Turdo just phucked EV's...unaffordable... but we MUST pay triple China's prices to keep Ontario auto industry rolling in dough. But our grain MUST sell at prices equal to lowest cost on earth!

Poilievre and the CPC are in favour of unions now because he wants their member's votes and supports collective bargaining.

Apparently Poilivere doesn't think unions have too much power!

And the CPC are in favour of supply management as well which goes against his small government message.

Poilievre, all attack dog and no substance! And he hates journalists who ask hard questions!

So Flipper you are not so happy with the "free market" for grain after all?

if we still had cwb the price would be a lot lower , after they all stuffed their own pockets first

You just succinctly described using a CO2 tax to subsidize electric vehicle purchasers.

I am talking about the few 100million dollar to billion dollar companies in sask that sell equipment that isneededfor mega projects.Huge water projects like raferty and defenbakerwere needed for the bennifit of everyone in Sask.How does this project bennifit anyone other than those building it and those that get a huge subsidy to get irrigation.

And the oil companies and well off farmers are still getting a lot of handouts and subsidies from taxpayers!

That said are you getting subsidies?

So it’s ok to wind and solar farms , in which those landlords get paid very well , but this is taboo??
not saying I agree with the irrigation project but what is so different ??

The difference is that one will increase productivity and GDP and tax revenues for generations to come. One will decrease all of the above.
