It effects a lot of small and medium sized businesses too.

Everyone's looking at consumer costs right now, how many people are looking at small businesses? Many businesses are struggling right now barely paying their bills, and borrowing money, if they can get it, isn't an affordable option.

If I was going to bet on it, I would say the next recession or crash in the Canadian economy will be caused by small business collapse.

But hey, let's throw more taxes on the back of these businesses.
So every farmer that has over a million in sellable assets will be part of the .013% people affected by the increase in tax? The turd said only extremely large corporations will be affected. I’m not a big farmer in the scheme of things but I guess I’ll be targeted when I sell down the road. That phacker won’t even be in power when I retire and he’ll still have his phacking hand in my back pocket.

Not only farmers and businesses but also people who are able to have a second home/cabin.

IIRC there is an allowance for farmers as well as fisherman and loggers.

Shouldn’t you be almost done by now?

Someone near me started April 8. We usually start around the last week of April and finish before may long. Some reserve moisture but the top is already drying out a lot in this wind. What about you?

There's a field over by Park Lake, that is already green and growing. Sure would like to know where he's getting his water? As we are heading into a very dry start to the year

I believe the Lethbridge area received a decent amount of moisture this winter with snow and rain compared to other parts of the province. That would probably be a winter wheat or rye crop and would have been seeded last fall and partially established then Doug. Now it needs moisture to finish.
