Actually there was a fellow on X doing the same. @Coryjudson bio says he's a president of Brantford & District Labour Council, and his workers work for private businesses and entrepreneurs who may time seek a more favourable location to build next go around.
Amazing, tho, zero pushback from Ag despite the fact that the most capital-intensive industry, high risk industry in Canada will be hit the hardest.

When you have so called lobbyists ( eg Dave Carey ) patting himself on the back for being awarded one of the top lobbyists in Ottawa and this kind of sh$t happens, you know farmers do not have an effective lobby. WTF do these guys do all day long, and surely some of the conservatives were at committee meetings where this came up. While there were rumblings of a change, why wasn't the farm friendly conservatives ringing the alarm bells?

FFS both David Dodge and John Manley both criticized this change to capital gains. Manley made mention they reduced it and actually collected more because people could see a path forward at the 50% inclusion rate level.

Agriculture is an easy target, they are no real farmers in the conservative benches in Ottawa. Chances are most of them have on their resume - "I came from a farm, or my uncles and cousins farm". Not really close enough to understand the impact of measures like this because most were gifted what they have and that's why they have time to DF in Ottawa.

I think that's there plan stop farmers from putting in a crop, repo the land, move tent cities out to the country and turn Canada into the Worlds largest National Park

Forgot the part of populating the national park with buffaloes.

Well the Freeland family farm liquidated and sold out a year or two ago, so they saved a lot of money from excess tax.

Everybody is just trying to get to an election and hope we can change this course. Pushback means nothing to Trudeau, waste of time.

Harper himself said yesterday that it will be very difficult for PP to turn this ship around. Totally agree. I expect a sovereign debt crisis at sometime in the near future and crack up of the country.

Mexico has overtaken us. Let that sink in, we are the new Mexico. Without the weather or beaches.

I have been lobbying the Premiers to support Constitutional reform: an equal, Elected, and Effective Senate. If you are old like me, you may remember my lobbying for this in the Meech Lake Accord days.

The issue of representation and overspending begins in the Senate. An appointed unequal Senate has zero checks and balances. Secondly, there is zero balance in rural areas, which traditionally share more conservative views on debt and spending.

Premier Blaine Higgs of New Brunswick, who also has expressed carbon tax concern, sent a positive response regarding the need for Constitutional reform.

I am still waiting to receive a response from Premier Scott Moe, who received the same request for action. I will ask him when he attends the Community Meeting on April 27 at the arena in Speers.

Gawd, I thought that was dead. Good luck!!
