  1. Liberal logic: Cost of food is rising. Fertilizer makes food grow better. Let’s make farmers reduce fertilize use. Let’s make farmers pay a carbon tax on every single thing they purchase.

    1. @QUIXOTE J funny you just didn’t say farmers do not pay carbon tax? Then I would say, why don’t you come out to the farm and we can show you how the carbon tax works. We can also show you where your food comes from because if you don’t think farmers pay carbon tax you probably don’t know where your food comes from either.

    1. I agree! The gardens were wonderful this year, very blessed with tons of veggies and fruit trees. Gonna miss the summer!!!

  2. I don’t know what reports this reporter is looking at? “ inflation going down the last few months” do your homework before you report to Canadians. Everything has gone up tremendously, inflation has gone up as well.
