Inflation is completely out of control, you can’t even take 3 kids to a Detroit Tigers game anymore without spending an arm and a leg! Crazy!

@kowalchukfarms1 It might be a wake up call for banks to look at the risk they have with other farm accounts. Not to the same scale as Monette’s,but are there others?

Are we going to see banks in Canada look differently at loaning money to farms? Or will they see Monette’s as an anomaly?

Still pretty badass they use sleds in the Arctic to haul equipment and the sleds are all built in Saskatchewan.

@kowalchukfarms1 I think it is entirely subject to how leveraged you are, how thick or thin your margins are, and how willing you are to eat store brand bologna. I'm not entirely sure that size is a large factor.

Shouldn’t larger farms be able to handle economic challenges better than smaller ones? Or is it established family farms regardless of size that are in a better position to weather this current downturn?

@abfarmdawg @TSmith1867 YouTube has damned near become unwatchable. AI written, AI narrated, and AI vid/pic. Frig! If nothing else, I guess this forces guys like u and me to tell ourselves and our kids to "touch grass" more often!

@TSmith1867 The last few months have been increasingly hard to moderate the content my young kids see. It’s especially frustrating when you want to reward the kid’s curiosity about the world and how things work. How are they supposed to differentiate what’s real and what’s fake.

@KKoolyk Last 5 or 6 years they've decided to nest just west of our yard. They keep coming back. Hundreds of them when all hatch

Every kid seems to need to go through the stage of "writing on" or "cleaning" vehicles/equipment with rocks. FML, just had one this morning. "Dad, I was cleaning the car with this rock!" Drive junk till they're outta high school I guess.

@bigmothufacking Is that a stainless hex shaft? Or just covered in anti-seize? I despise those things. They had them on serious sale last spring, so bought 3 for 1/2 price

You have to lube really well to make it easy to slide your shaft in

Controversial take of the day: Every spring is different! Things like soil temp, air temperature and moisture do not know what day it is So picking a start date for seeding solely based on the calendar makes very little sense…

@derekmcbain I’d say we are pushing 3x that here. Remember last June when they forecast 2.5” and we laughed and laughed then watched it rain over 3.5”? Feels like that. Forecast was 32-47cm and in my mind I was like ‘no way.’

@RagenKajen Was starting to green up here, so it'll appreciate it. I'd say 6-8 here, drifts maybe 10-12 in places.

@_kruptos He's free to operate as he sees fit now. Does he move right? Or left? Or muddle in the middle? He owns from here on in!

I would never vote for Carney, but to call him “Canada’s greatest criminal” is to embrace a histrionic style that makes serious political discourse difficult and impedes an understanding of how politics in Canada truly works.
Randy Hillier@randyhillier

Canada's greatest criminal will be rewarded with 3 years of unaccountable and unrestricted authority today. Because that's what the Canadian voters will choose. The other good news is that @AndrewScheer & @ScottReidCPC won't have to hide behind the curtains anymore during upcoming votes.
