Branden Leslie
for Portage-Lisgar

Justin Trudeau thinks farmers are tax cheats who don’t care about the environment, and he couldn’t be more wrong.  Our farmers are the true conservationists, and the federal government needs to give them the respect they deserve.

 

Trudeau’s fertilizer plan will drive food production out of Canada, and into higher polluting foreign countries.  He is taking paycheques away from Canadian farmers and doing nothing to protect the environment.

 

Instead of punishing new taxes or forcing fertilizer reductions on farmers that will drive the price of food through the roof, Branden will defend our farmers and our rural way of life every step of the way. 

He will fight to repeal any fertilizer limits and to get government out of the way and off the backs of our farmers, so that we can feed our people and be the breadbasket of the world.
