Hi John,

You have another chance to get farmers some much-needed carbon tax relief.

Bill C-234 is a bill that would remove the carbon tax from natural gas and propane used on farms. Farmers use these fuels to dry grain and heat barns.

Recently, the bill passed through the Senate with amendments that gut the bill and reduce the relief.

But now the House of Commons gets a shot at the bill again. So, now the fight is on to reject these amendments and pass the original bill to get farmers full relief.

To win this fight we are building up an army of supporters that can step up to the plate to fight for farmers at a moment’s notice.

You can join that army by signing the online PETITION: https://www.taxpayer.com/petitions/take-carbon-taxes-off-all-farm-fuels

You know that farmers work long hours so the rest of us can look forward to three square meals a day. It’s time to repay that hard work. 

Members of Parliament head back to Ottawa soon, and last time this bill was in the House, it was unanimously supported by the Conservatives, NDP, Bloc and Greens. Even three Liberals voted for it. 

That needs to happen again.

Please sign the PETITION to get farmers carbon tax relief: https://www.taxpayer.com/petitions/take-carbon-taxes-off-all-farm-fuels

You know we need to completely scrap the carbon tax. But passing Bill C-234 puts another chink in the carbon tax’s armour.

I’ll be updating you every time we have a chance to notch up the pressure on these politicians. My family back home on the farm won’t let me forget about this fight.

Sincerely, 

Gage Haubrich
Prairie Director for the Canadian Taxpayers Federation
