    An exemption for farm use is fine with me.

    Gas prices rose considerably in the last year. Not sure where they are at now.

    The incentive to get more efficient is baked in with higher prices.

    How are you enjoying the run up in fuel prices thanks to OPEC production cuts? Just in time for spring seeding.

      When it is a wet fall and you have a choice between leaving your crop in the field or harvesting it and drying it, how do you get more efficient? I have no doubt a grain dryer built in 2020 is somewhat more efficient than one built in 1985, regardless when the tax exceeds the value of the commodity their is something seriously wrong with the policy. Also Chuck2 explain me why you know what the price of diesel is but not natural gas? Do you even know how much carbon tax you pay on your natural gas?

        Just took delivery of diesel. And natural gas prices are set by Sask Energy and billed monthly.

        I don't use much gas.

        Dryer manufacturers are looking at efficiency gains. Not sure how much they can improve them. If you capture some of the lost heat and extract the moisture maybe its possible to make them more efficient?

        ICEs are only 20% efficient compared to 80% for EVs. Because for a long time efficiency and reducing carbon emissions were not much of an issue. Now they are. And the same applies to grain drying.

          If you cant see or understand the data in global research then its not accurate.

          So goes the flat earther notions! LOL
          Classic mkultra'd leftist, "dont trust your eyes instead trust the bought and paid for propaganda of the pseudo science cult. Surrender everything including your critical thinking and bodily autonomy. You must eat z bugz!"

          But you know what I appreciate Chucks posts. They give us insight into the disturbing mindset of the most brainwashed. Sad how the weak minded have succumb to the deception.

            So in other words you have no problem with the government tax being over 40% higher than the cost of the commodity it is being applied to?!

              According to the parliamentary budget office, most consumers get most of the carbon tax back. It drives efficiency and lower use which is what we need.

                Amusing play on words Chuckster. What the PBO actually said was for 80% of consumers the carbon tax would cost you more than you receive in rebates. The higher your income the higher the cost. Only the lowest 20% of income earners will come out ahead.

                  EXPLAIN, how the hell does getting ALL the tax back change energy use by a consumer? Zero sum game. And therefore ZERO effect on C02 and Zero saving the planet from + 1 C. Smoke and mirrors.

                  This is THE question Libtards need to be asked 24x7. Media could....

                    You still buying that filthy polluting diesel?
                    Kind of thought someone enlightened like you would by running on the new clean technology?

                      That’s exactly how it is designed, wealth redistribution 101 . Chuck fully supports this as does the NFU .
                      Funny how the truth finally leaks out and the Trudeau is stamping his feet demanding a rewrite ffs .
                      When will people clue in ??
                      It never was about actually addressing climate change , it’s all about wealth redistribution
