My standard line about farming is that, for whatever reason, I grew up more passionate about books than barley and more interested in computers than combines.

But instead of cutting funding to public libraries and threatening to destroy a 100-year old, world-leading system like they did two years ago, the Sask Party targeted Cornwall […]
