    Coincidence that Monnette started buying a pile of land in irrigation areas in Sask eh ?
    That's no coincidence, no doubt Monette has a direct line to Scotty Moe!

    Eventually the only farms left will be the Monette's and the other wanna be Monettes.

    All subsidized by taxpayers and easy access to FCC loans from a crown corporation which favours larger farms over small farms.

      Explain "favours", then an example.

        Ask any small farmers about FCC and they will tell you how hard it is to get a loan!

          From my experience with loans I've found FCC to be easier to deal with than banks and had lower rates.

            Chuck, you have your isms mixed up. All the isms you listed, racism, sexism, misogynism etc are improving everywhere except the media.
            The growing economic inequality you correctly point out is the inevitable result of a completely different ism. The growing socialism.
            Happens every single time it has been tried.

              Well maybe we all could see eye to eye a bit more if you were not such a d##k to all the other family farmers on here 99% of the time and drop the social justice warrior b/s

                I’m certainly no big farmer and found fcc great to help me out getting going. Banks were no where close to the terms fcc could provide. Now this was 14 years ago and since then requirements have definitely tightened up. They do give priority to the younger and more growth oriented.

                  Last time I tried to get rates from FCC, they weren't even close to competitive with the Credit Union we currently use. It sounded like most of the advantages were in flexibility, what they would approve and what they required as collateral.

                      I never got any help 25 years ago from FCC, I just busted my ass framing houses instead, revenue Canada really set me back, try and make some money so I could support my family and ranch and the government scammers come out of the woodwork.

                        I would say Bill Boyd did his landlord a favour.I would say the government paying ot Brandt with taxpayer government so quick is favour And hire an overseas company that had to buy all its equipment is a favour to Brandt.Now this irrigation project is a favour to many construction companies while the ER is at 350% capacity and schools are past full before Moe starts to build another.

                          But you have no credible answer for the growing inequality in Canada as reported by Stats Canada blaming it on socialism which you often claim does the opposite by trying to make people more equal? Huh? Do you even know what you wrote because you contradicted yourself!

                          Why did you run away from your bogus claim that we are more equal when I proved you were wrong again?

                          You are all talk and no evidence! A very confused bull shitter in other words!

                          Or to put it into language an Albertan can understand, All hat and no cattle!
