The anger over the Trudeau government’s plan to have farmers use less fertilizer hasn’t boiled over in this country like it has across the Netherlands, but it’s getting there.
Article content Citing climate change as the reason, the government wants to see emissions of nitrous oxide from fertilizer reduced, not they say, fertilizer use.
Farmers insist there is no difference, that the government’s moves will cause “severe economic harm” including billions lost. The Western Canadian Wheat Growers commissioned a report that said the plan would cost Alberta $2.95B, Saskatchewan $4.61B and Manitoba $1.58B just in lost production from their canola and spring wheat crops alone.
Across the Netherlands, the move by the Rutte government to impose a 50% cut has seen farmers protest over the last two weeks with highway blockades, the shutdown of food distribution centres and protests at supermarkets.

I wonder if Putin and Xi are planning the same for their countries...
Netherlands, Italy, Poland now Canada. Hmmmm....we need to punish the farmers for heating up the world by keeping them from growing so much food. Right as we are on the eve of worldwide famine.

Do what Mao did.
Have all of the elite, college professors, politicians, etc., hand gathering and hand lugging "night soil" from the cities and towns to the farmers in the countryside.
Outlaw flush toilets, everybody craps in buckets and sets it outside for the elites to gather.
maybe we can convince the progressives to join the government suspended animation program and then they can rule the future.
Willing to bet Trudeau’s carbon footprint from flying is larger than 100 farms combined.
Maybe all of the Great White North hosers should be electing other “leaders”?

A music professor at our local university (one of the best music programs in the nation) lived through the Cultural Revolution.
He told me they took him and the other music students out of the conservatory and made them grow rice. They took the farmers off to the city to play music and make artwork.
The artists and musicians did not know how to farm. The farmers didn’t know how to play instruments or paint.
Needless to say millions starved.
He was lucky, survived and escaped to Hong Kong, then got a professorship here in the USA.
Time for more Brawndo

I do not understand the focus on nitrogen. It is 78% of the atmosphere. These people are insane, and evil.
