US farmer income forecast to be highest since the record year of 2013

No BS here just on your threads forage. Even the Producer email had an article on the latest USDA forecast. Have looked into immigration requirements to the US. There is employer sponsored visa or investor class. To qualify for investor class you need to invest either $1000000, or $500000 in a designated rural area, and create or demonstrate that you have saved 10 full time equivalent jobs. Just buying a farm does not cut it. I do know of a family that has recently sold out in SK and is farming in central Montana now but they were dual citizens already.

Not much point in jumping though all the hoops at this point in time, It will be much easier to negotiate wholesale acceptance into the union, than to have all of the productive members of society slowly bleed out of Canada into the US. Although the slow bleed of the brain drain has become a gusher lately while the US energy industry continues to grow at our expense.

Sure hope that day is soon as I turned 50 recently. Too many things wrong with canuckistan to bother to fix and I do have an 8 year old son. What opportunities will there be for him 15 years from now.

A big portion of that income has come in the form of FMP payments and crop insurance payments which tells me that I am competing with the US treasury and that will be a loosing battle for Canadian agriculture.
