    Seriously, are you actually calling for a guaranteed income for farmers?
    Every other industry has it....let me name a few

    AGT----in excess of 120 million and counting
    Evraz ----40 million along with a 2 billion fund to draw from
    Supply management is getting billions and the ink isn't dry on trade agreements on a 5 percent loss in market share that they haven't lost yet.
    Morris Industries received millions and went into creditor protection...

    DOT received 5 million and then sold out to Raven within the ink drying period.

    I can go on...

    But do farmers need some support....yes ....and every generation has received something which is why you have 3rd and 4th generation farmers. Because the payments were enough for the previous generation not to say " Phuck it " and quit....

      Just a decent Crop insurance would be all that’s needed or asked for. But thanks to Trudeau we lost Canola and that’s a hard fact. He then pisses money to every cause world wide. Even probably China oh yea there bank for 250 mill. So yea I’m pissed with the canola market

        All crop insurance has to do is extrapolate yields into the modern age.....I do like that cop insurance is based on individual crops.....go to whole farm insurance and it could get ugly...where one crop covers off the loss on the poor crop....but premiums should be reduced BUT still racing to the bottom....

        I think programs have to be put in place that cover weather events like the last year ....early on and the shit fall we have...

        When guys are looking at having the crop in the field that is needed to cover bills it gets pretty stressful....and then crop insurance says the yield is over the production guarantee and it will be counted as inventory on agristability.....you know you are sort of phucked....

Unlocked the Gun safe, Ran to other safe and got my bullets and then phoned the Gun line because you know they have to know then finally ran outside and they were gone. Canada wake up it's about having them have the guns and citizens without, its not about gun crime. Trudeau and the liberals are sick.
            You are allowed one rifle with easy access for such things, i can be loaded and out the door in ten seconds, done it more than once. Firearms safety course page 199 paragraph b and c. Paragraph a states a bolt action rifle may be stored unlocked with the bolt removed. Ammo need not be locked if stored away from guns page 93.

              And there is no phoning a gun line unless a handgun, which can be only fired at a gun range you are a member of.

                Are you saying you want the government to pay for a larger percentage of your premiums than they already are? So your vote is for more government handouts... At least if it helps you? Sorry if I misunderstood... But that's the way it comes across.

                  If you believe the gov puts money in to crop insurance I have ocean front property in Arizona. Do premium paid by you x number of acres insured. The gov back the insurance that’s all.

                    Actually yes it is, what I question is how they do books.

                      And on a beer filled moment I own two mosin nagant 91/30 like in my avatar , many of my family likely died holding one, as much as I respect sf3 keep uniformed drivel for the Trudeau camp, you are doing people shooting muskats in the dugout no good, I had a wolf outside my bedroom window stealing dog food and a bear stalking a cat on the front lawn, shot a coyote that had my cat treed out the patio door five in the morning and he had lots if friends who never back, bullshit don't help the honest gunowner cause, you even own a bb gun?
