        But my 75 wheat and 60 canola make money in the black soil zone. Why grow it in the south? I don’t grow durum or lentils.

        Same stupid argument.

        We all did our part to save money and make our homes energy efficient etc.

        Trudeau is insane and just wants money and feel good that’s all this is.

        Tax the shit out of Canadians.

          Farmers working with oil companies could utilize the gas presently burned off. (What would the enviro penalty be that they are paying)?

          A grid to capture the gas (farmers and companies build it together) to heat farmsteads benefitting both oil Co and farmers seems plausible, does it not?

          Any comments if possiblily is being done, rejected, or ignored?

            But the Sask party have never mentioned a specific rebate request. The NDP asked them to work together to request a rebate but they said no! Too busy playing politics, was the answer!

            The carbon tax on my Oct/ Nov bill is is about 40% on the actual gas consumption or about 13.5% of the total bill. A whopping $25.21! I used a small amount for drying. The rest was normal heating and household use. There is no carbon tax on the gas delivery charge or the basic monthly charge.

            This is certainly putting pressure on my farm financial picture! The banks are calling every day and I am thinking of calling Ritchie Brothers and moving to Florida to play golf with SF!
            Chuck I posted in the Cabon tax percentage thread about how unevenly the carbon is applied across Canada, if it is such a climate emergency why is it ok if residents in some provinces pay a much lower carbon tax?

              The most insane part is there is no transparency to how the money is being spent - or how it is reducing anything at all.

                  Exactly. I thought everything went back to the province other than the apparent GST scam. Yet Trudeau said our rebates will be less next year even with an increase to $30/tonne. Factor in the harvest from hell that injected a pile more revenue to Ottawa due to drying grain.

                  Where is the money ending up??

                    JT has a long vision. To place us for the next century. Not to get stuck in the present. His words.
                    Tells you something about who's voting for him. Goofy carbon tax to general revenue, OK. But an increase in GST of 1 or 2%? No no, that won't sell.
                    Haha.
                    Perhaps he can get any dumber??
                    Maybe all the provinces can get the same deal as QC.

                      When trudope gets his majority back next election (and he will), gst is going up 2 points.
