This low cost tractor from Alberta is specifically low-tech.

An electric remote control tractor doesn't quite compare.

    Because the Canadian government and Canadian business spend among the lowest %GDP in the world on R&D. Both sectors have a quick buck mentality of just digging stuff out of a hole.
