“Public plant breeding programs generate $20 in returns for every $1 invested, but the federal government is cutting its budget for agricultural research.”

@wheatgrowers @marlene4719 Exactly, govt making decisions that affect all workers is getting old!

[Ray Askin @RayAskin]

@gmjochum @LowBoomLowDrift Yes, same with stressed canola. Or hailed grains.

[Ray Askin @RayAskin]

@DTimchishen Careful what you wish for.

As the Canola industry does what it can to navigate the federally imposed hardships, we echo their call and the call of every single Western Canadian farmer, for Ottawa to act! Trash the EV tariffs and signal our desire for free and open trade.

Over 75% tariff slapped on canola seed today by China

Potential 2.3billion dollar hit to Canadian farmers bottom line!

Radio silence so far from the feds

Thanks for your concern and immediate response today @MarkJCarney …🙄

🚨 Harvest-season gut punch: China slaps a 75.8% tariff on 🇨🇦 canola mid-harvest. This could cost Prairie farmers $2.35B. Ottawa must stop sacrificing the West in trade disputes.

@wheatgrowers Turn back the ridiculous tariffs on Chinese EVs! Canada is a free trade nation, full stop!

@augeradam @DefazioIvano Gas prices will be prohibitive.

@cfwpepw @Bratt_world plants need Nitrogen to grow. There’s 2 sources, either N taken from air using modern chemical process using natural gas to produce, or sewage waste. Take your pick.

@Highly_Cynical @MarcNixon24 Now let’s talk about taxpayers and see what the number is! Lots who don’t.

[Kat Kanada 🏴 @KatKanada_TM]

Ok team,
I really need help.

I need my local candidate to unseat the NDP in Nanaimo.

Please help me boost @KronisTamara's platform like we did for Barbara Bal & others.

Nanaimo can't afford to go orange again.

PLEASE!

[Ray Askin @RayAskin]

@CarymaRules I wonder what we are coming back from?

[Ray Askin @RayAskin]

@mattjohnstonca Solutions to what Dr? So you admit that the last 9 years have been an utter disaster???

[Ray Askin @RayAskin]

@StaceyMonette27 And some stories that are against the narrative are not covered.

@jksellors @JohnBarlowMP Combines and tractors use roughly 600 liters of fuel each daily, depends on model, capacity, etc. Let alone all the semis delivering goods worldwide. Dream on about autonomous electric. The current infrastructure couldn’t service cars, let alone all this.
Perhaps H or nuclear NRG
