I'll second AdamSmith's suggestion that you'll lose less money buy not seeding versus mucking it in too late in the crop year.
I would only continue to seed if I had previously purchased my fertilizer at last fall's lower prices and couldnt swing a deal to re-sell it back to them at the higher prices, or have the ability to store it until fall or spring. (i.e cant store NH3 on the farm)
I hope "Canada's New Government" works out a disaster program with the provinces for you guys in the worst hit areas. I've been in your sutiation many times before. With today's input costs, we need a predicable federal-provincial disaster program for these situations.
