Be Patient With Farm Machinery On The Road

By Carol Thomson Aug 23, 2018 | 1:55 PM

It’s harvest time with meals in the field, combining ’til all hours and moving equipment, which is why the Government of Saskatchewan is reminding farmers and drivers to be safe.
Minister of Highways and Infrastructure, Lori Carr, urges drivers to take extra precautions when passing slow-moving farm equipment and be respectful even if you are frustrated with the pace.
Farmers should ensure all lights are working before driving on public roads, know all height, length and weight restrictions so you know if your equipment will fit and check for when permits may be required.

Have Your Say

When you receive your carbon tax rebate by direct deposit have you ever not known where it came from, regardless of how it was identified on your statement?

The Candian government wants the country’s banks to identify, in customers’ bank statements when they receive the carbon rebate, that it is labelled as such.

Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault says the lack of a clear identifier is contributing to confusion about carbon price rebates, so he is going to change the law if he has to in order to force the big banks to identify the carbon rebate by name when doing direct deposits.

The first rebate deposits in 2022 were labelled very generically, which meant recipients had no idea why they were getting the money.

T-D and B-MO have adopted the government’s requested “CdaCarbonRebate” entry, R-B-C and Scotiabank say they couldn’t make the change in time for the rollout, and C-I-B-C is still calling it “Deposit Canada.”
