About that Carbon Tax... The boys are loaded up, headed out to work on another contract. Two semis, two dozers, two service trucks. They do this all year round. They work on wildfires, forestry sites, road building, clearing land for farmers and working with infrastructure contractors. When they aren't doing that they all farm too. They are small businessmen. They use a lot of diesel to provide these essential services that both protect us and help provide the infrastructure we all rely on from roads, to power, to the food we eat. They can't go buy EV equipment. Even if it was available and they could afford it, there is no way an EV dozer is going to work a 16 hr shift at -40 in a remote location. But they pay that carbon tax, and a lot of it. The purpose of that tax was supposed to be a punishment for those who consumed too much O&G and an "incentive" for them to find ways to conserve and lower their carbon footprint. They do that. They keep that equipment in top notch condition. They ensure all of it is running as efficiently as possible. They don't need a carbon tax incentive for that. It's common sense that, as small businessmen, they maintain everything diligently and upgrade whenever they can to have the most efficient equipment they can afford. They work mainly in the ridings of @GaryAVidal and @MPRandyHoback in Central and northern Saskatchewan. They don't get their story heard because our Liberal government has said the quiet part outloud, that they don't listen to the concerns of citizens in Conservative ridings. When you see the cost of food rising, or of lumber to build homes, or the costs your province pays for maintaining and building roads, or even the money spent on fighting wildfires, this is what trickles down. And they are just one layer in a complex supply chain. The Carbon Tax is killing our economy, it's killing small businesses, it's killing us. The Carbon Tax is punishment of people who don't have the option to make the changes the green grift demands. The Carbon Tax has got to go #AxetheTax

I have never seen a vertical wall of smoke like this one near Fox Creek, Alberta on Sunday. And the strangest thing about this moment was I couldn't smell any smoke. #ABfire #ABfires
