LABOUR DAY WEEKEND

Summer is almost over folks. In case you have forgotten just how wet the fall harvest months can get, here is a tractor stuck in the mud video, to remind you. Have a safe weekend!

CANADA POST STEALS COLONEL SAUNDERS SECRET RECIPE !

The headline:
Canada Post segment reports $53-million profit before tax in second quarter
The small print:
Year-to-date, the net reduction in employee benefit costs is $113 million when compared to the same period in 2013.

IF YOU ASK A STUPID QUESTION SUCH AS:

Should the young man in the Trudeau break-in case have been charged?
You might be a Turdo la Doo cheerleader disguised as an independent news broadcaster.
How about...
Should the Ottawa Police release all the details about the case in the vain hope that the Press Corps might ask some real questions?

WHEN WHORES ARE IN THEIR PRIME

Beef Farmers of Ontario (formerly Ontario Cattlemens Association) is totally producer funded by check-off fees on every animal sold in Ontario. Logic would suggest they are to represent the very people those check-off fees are collected from. Then why are they now in bed with the OSPCA with some sort of joint partnership formed and spouting off about myths and facts?
Here is a prime example/story of the true facts and how a couple was persecuted by the OSPCA

'vantage number 1:
The incentive to move is the U.S.’s high corporate tax rate — 35% versus our federal rate of 15% — and its practice of taxing its companies on their worldwide rather than simply their U.S. income.
'vantage number 2:
Ontario reportedly has agreed to contribute $385 million in incentives. If Ottawa matches Ontario’s contribution, both levels of government will have covered about half of the total cost of the investment.

THROUGH ROSE-COLOURED GLASSES

Howlers from a Conservative back-bencher:
we understand that a small, efficient government is beneficial to the economy, our personal liberties and our daily lives.
and...
 too much regulation and meddling will slow economic growth, limit individual initiative and impact the day-to-day lives of ordinary Canadians
and...
we’ve eliminated some programs and agencies that were not achieving results; and we’ve reviewed and reduced department spending levels throughout the federal government, including handouts to businesses from regional development budgets.
and...
 most of my constituents and small businesses would prefer lower taxes to fatter business subsidies
and the final knee-slapper
if governments do, as the Post‘s editorialists write, “bring home the bacon,” voters know who’s paying for it.

ONTARIO GREENBELT EXPANSION

Expanding Ontario’s Greenbelt by one million acres attracted a lot of attention when the idea was proposed by a group of municipal leaders this past June. The announcement was made by the Municipal Leaders for the Greenbelt in the lead up to the fall municipal election, and is widely expected to become an election issue.

WHO'DA THUNK IT???

Consumer Report identifies culprits responsible for Public's pessimism on farming's future.
"When participants think about the sector there is a tendency to envisage farms, livestock, crops, green pastures, endless wheat fields, and prairie landscapes. This type of imagery reinforces a view of the sector as traditional, rather than modern, progressive and innovative."
However...
"Recent surveys of the Canadian public have underscored a number of misperceptions about the agricultural sector and a relatively pessimistic public view with respect to its future outlook," the report says, citing "alarmist documentaries and media reports" as the culprits."
And just in case you think Ag Canada will soon straighten this out...
"The final report...was delivered to the department in April, but never publicized. It now sits quietly tucked away in its online archives ...."
