UN Trudeau pushes ahead on fertilizer reduction as provinces and farmers cry foul - Provincial agriculture ministers are expressing frustration with the Trudeau government over plans to effectively reduce fertilizer use by Canada’s farmers in the name of fighting climate change.

Marie-Claude Bibeau, Minister of Agriculture and Agri-food, speaks during a press conference announcing announcing $16 million in funding for Living Laboratories in Alberta during an Alberta Beef Producer?s summit at the Hyatt Regency in Calgary on Thursday, July 14, 2022.

Provincial agriculture ministers are expressing frustration with the Trudeau government over plans to effectively reduce fertilizer use by Canada’s farmers in the name of fighting climate change.

A meeting of federal and provincial ministers wrapped up in Saskatoon on Friday with several provinces saying they are disappointed.

The federal government is looking to impose a requirement to reduce nitrous oxide emissions from fertilizers saying it is a greenhouse gas contributing to climate change. While the Trudeau government says they want a 30% reduction in emissions, not fertilizer, farm producer groups say that at this point, reducing nitrous oxide emissions can’t be done without reducing fertilizer use.

“Provinces were disappointed by the lack of flexibility and consultation regarding the federal target,” Ontario’s Lisa Thompson said after the meeting.

Several provincial governments, and organizations representing farmers have asked for emissions reductions from fertilizer to be measured via intensity – how much food is produced compared to the amount of fertilizer used. The Trudeau government is demanding an absolute reduction in emissions, which farmers say will result in less food being produced at a time when the world can ill afford it.

“The world is looking for Canada to increase production and be a solution to global food shortages. The Federal government needs to display that they understand this,” Alberta minister Nate Horner said

Sri Lanka, the Netherlands, and now Canada? Trudeau didn’t come up with this idea in his own, the WEF told him to do it.

great reset baybeee

Sri Lanka, the Netherlands, and now Canada? Trudeau didn’t come up with this idea in his own, the WEF told him to do it.

Don't worry, just like Communism, this time it will work for sure, I'm sure.

 

[Super-Chevy454]

I hope our Canadian farmers taked some tips advices from the Dutch farmers. It'll like to see some manure dropped at the head of some Canadian bureaucrats.

Dictator does dictator shit in his dictatorship, where he's already proven that peaceful protest not only doesn't work, but can get you locked up indefinitely.

Things aren't gonna get better up there without going full Sri Lanka

Don't worry, just like Communism, this time it will work for sure, I'm sure.

Will Canada also resort to using human shit as fertilizer, like how Best Korea North Korea does?

 

[DoomsdayElite]

Less fertilizer, smaller crops, decline in production, eventually-food shortages. Trudeau is following the WEF playbook to a fucking T. How dangerous do you reckon a starving person is? Pretty fucking dangerous if you ask me.

My dislike for politicians is pure hatred. A group of people that have destroyed many lively hoods and now they're opening up the door to starvation for the general public, and not one of these cunts will have to suffer the consequences of thier own policies.

 

[TurdFondler]

You'll own nothing and you'll be happy starving

 

[Exceptionally Exceptional]

Good... good... once the crops begin to yield less and less fruit the food shortages will begin. Then the Canadians won't have the strength to resist an invasion no matter how much of a joke our military is becoming.

as every other globohomo plan in the past the newest concoction of returning to monke then ruling over the ashes wont work because the people who want to rule after the reset are scared for their lives when the people are hangry. Literally just keep them fat and strip away their rights slowly throughout the years American style lol.

The Ceylonese's reasoning for organic farming was to "cut costs for farmers", and we all saw how that went.

Canada wants to do so in the name of fighting climate change? That's even less palatable.

Perhaps if Canada goes the route of Ceylon it won't be such a bad thing.

The sad thing people on here aren't talking about is nitrates in the air/ground/water. This isn't to cut all nitrogen use, it's literally to cut down on excess use. This is an easy thing to look up. Also, I myself live in an area where nitrogen pollution ruined the ecosystem, and when it was addressed and excess nitrogen use was banned, shockingly the algal blooms that was killing the populations of fish went away. Anyways here are some reads for this, (1) (2).

These people should at least be seen and treated like parasites at best. At worst they are demons, Satan's little helpers tormenting man from above.

Nitrogen pollution in the environment can be a problem yes, but it doesn't require a broad solution that will effect the entire farming industry. Just identify the people who violate the law on the matter and punish them, simple as that. In the context of Trudeau's push against fertilizer, that is not what is happening here. The goal is to get a 30% reduction in emissions for the country and while fertilizer isn't officially targeted by this, there are groups that believe reducing nitrous oxide emissions are critical to reaching the emission rate goal.

guess we'll see just how desperate hunger makes a leaf, then.

Farmers will probably start taking their fertilizer and start making bombs with it.

Leafs will take it up the ass

You thought sportsball on ice was stupid, there's Leafs that get so mad over their debased version of football they'll dump truckloads of manure on the the placekickers' lawn.

I felt those links were very heavily biased so I went to check out a better source.... there is no better source. Look at these, do they look unbiased to you?

Guess Canada learned nothing from the disaster that is Sri Lanka. Or they did and this is all part of some chess game to them.
