Coming from you, that's rich.  Sarcastic drive-by snipes in cherry red are your specialty, aren't they? 

Getting lumped in with Hardner is okay with me though.  I probably disagree with him on as many things as I agree, but one thing that he has that most of you don't is a bit of perspective. 

When you say he stands for nothing, what you really mean is that he's not just a partisan screecher and that you find it frustrating that he actually asks you to answer questions and to defend your viewpoints.  🙃

Hardner is entirely partisan. He just likes to phrase everything in such a way that it sounds like he's taking a position but then when called on it he claims he's not taking a position. He absolutely makes his opinion known but won't stand beside it.

He's the wishy-washy kind of loser who prefers word games over actually addressing points and making an argument.  He is, as he would say, a chud. 

I don't think you're like him to be honest, you may be wrong but at least you're not afraid to state what your position is and try and make an argument.  I respect that more than mikey's cowardly ways.

As a conservative you can have Mikey all for yourself. I will take Nefarious Banana anytime rather than MH. Me and MH seems to always have this love/hate relationship going on between us here. But like they say, "chit happens". 😇

I'm no expert but wouldn't some crop diversification be a good idea for some farmers? And as long as this tariff stand-off is happening the Feds should help the farmers as they're doing with other industries.

And at least the farmer's convoy idea is about a real problem, unlike those Wingnuts from the 'Freedom Convoy'.

The farmers' message was heard loud and clear....in the form of crickets chirping across the country.  

Well dumbledipsrick the message was loud, very loud from my vantage point. Judging by the motorway horn blowing the protest was well received.

So where was you to acquire that in depth misinformation?

The problem is it does take a fair bit of time to switch and not all the equipment they have is suitable for harvesting different types of crops. They're not going to want to retool just to go from corn to flax if you know what I mean.

Also there aren't all that many crops that produce the kind of money that some of them ones like Canola do.

In time though adapt I'm sure but unfortunately it's not a quick process and that decision has to be made well in advance of the season, so it'll be too late even for next year I'm sure. Like I say eventually they'll adapt but in the meantime many could very well go out of business which means they get bought up by the big companies again and suddenly our entire food production system is owned by a handful of corporations.

Well that was a big nothingburger   Some “convoy,” that was almost as limp as PP’s peepee on budget day.  A handful of losers on Facebook just don’t have the influence they did during COVID it seems. 
 

At least  this time nobody stockpiled illegal firearms to fight “UN forces and possibly the.Chinese army” or  caused hundreds of layoffs on due to border blockades.
