Farmers Protest: No farmers, no food – Ontario farmers protest land expropriation.
Cancelling farms and farm lands are already happening in the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, and across Europe, including the Netherlands. Now Canada is outright doing it and is not hiding it. Less farms mean less in the food supply.
"A convoy of tractors from the Township of Wilmot, Ontario, rolled through the Waterloo Region HQ in protest against the government’s plan, backed by the province, to expropriate 770 acres of farmland for undisclosed purposes. 'These are farms that have often been in the family since the 1800s. To think that you’re going to have your farm, livelihood, home, and everything taken away from you on such short notice... If this can happen to these farmers—it can happen to farmers anywhere,' said Kevin Thomason, Vice Chair of the Grand River Environmental Network. The farmers are steadfast in their refusal to sell their farmland, despite the threat of government expropriation."
