ICYMI - Monday Study Panel - Cost of Business in Farms and Cities

The $200,000 Fuel Bill and the $30 Grocery Run

Gas prices impact on farmers this week is the reason your grocery bill jumped $30 without a single change to what you bought. You felt it at the pump. The farmer who grew your food felt it in a fuel bill that already runs $200,000 a year on an average Saskatchewan operation.

The price at the pump is a political signal in America. In a farm operation it is a line item that can determine whether a season makes sense. What changed this week is not just the pump price. It is the speed at which everything connected to it changed at the same time.

Topics: gas prices impact on farmers, fertilizer costs Canada, oil price spike, cost of living Canada, Saskatchewan farming

The One Moment That Shifted Canada's Iran War Conversation

Canada's Iran war response is the question your Prime Minister has not answered clearly, and the one your kids are starting to ask. You watched an ally launch strikes. You watched Parliament debate it without him in the room. You are still waiting for the line that does not move.

De-escalation. Both said it when asked for one word. Canada has been the adult in the room before, the country that held a different relationship with Cuba than the US did, the one that steered toward diplomacy when the pressure was to follow. Whether that role gets claimed in the days ahead is the thing to watch.

Topics: Canada Iran war response, Mark Carney boots on ground, Canadian sovereignty, Parliament debate Iran, NATO obligations Canada
