Survey Responses
Cornelis (Ontario):
What issues do you want to see federal politicians address?
Trade and tariffs; AgriStability/support for agriculture; Capital gains tax rules; Government spending/debt; Carbon tax
If you could ask any of the political leaders a question, what would that question be and who would you ask?
Is it possible to put laws in place in Canada to make it illegal over 4 years of term of the PM, to run a deficit budget. Punishable by jail time if a deficit occurs by the end of year 4.
David (Saskatchewan):
What issues do you want to see federal politicians address?
The annexation of Canada by the U.S.; Trade and tariffs; AgriStability/support for agriculture; Capital gains tax rules
In your opinion, what is the most-pressing issue facing Canadian farmers?
Attempted annexation by the US literally is our most pressing issue. This only ends badly for all Canadians if we succumb.
If you could ask any of the political leaders a question, what would that question be and who would you ask?
I feel that during this time frame with the US essentially trying to wage economic war on Canada all political parties and members should put aside partisan politics and be on the same side. With that being said. If the auto workers are facing losses, then let us all cover them. By the same token as a Sask farmer if we are taking a hit, whether that be from US or China then all of Canada needs to help us as well. Very simply United we Stand. Divided we fall. I want to hear all our political people push this idea and indeed agenda hard.
