West Central Alberta Coldest, wettest edge
roaringtiger is probably correct, but maybe not forever.

What I did, before I was married and had kids was to work off the farm at a job with unlimited overtime and flexible hours. Over 10 years straight, no days( or even hours) off between farm and work, pay the taxes and get it over with. You CAN'T do that with a wife and kids at home, at least not if you want to keep them for long. Was very effective at building capital. But I wouldn't trade my wife and family and TIME for it now. Glad I did it when I did though.
