Our Land, Our Farms, Our Farmers

No More Rural property will be stolen

The first actions of the newly created Ontario Landowners’ association are on Wednesday December 14, 2005. Major property rights rallies will be held in Woodstock and Ottawa.

Stop the Destruction convoys comprised of tractors and other vehicles will enter the 400 series highways in the morning of Dec 14 and proceed to their destination points. The rallies will converge at 11:00 am in Ottawa’s central experimental farm and others sites (TBa).

all levels of government are increasingly and incrementally devaluing the private property of rural Ontario residents, due to excessive and intrusive over regulations.

The next target is Ontario’s dairy and poultry farmers, who will lose over 600 million dollars of farm assets without compensation under the proposed WTO negotiations.

This coincides with the bureaucratic ‘protection’ that,

• determined sawdust was a toxic substance and closed down small sawmills,
• closed over 100 small abattoirs because of increased regulation
• arbitrarily and without warning eliminated the farm separated cream industry
• arbitrarily closed deer and elk farms
• Put thousands of tobacco farmers off their farms
• Will soon close down all Farmers’ markets because food is not ‘safe’.

In addition this war on rural Ontario has:

• devalued 1.8 million acres of private land in the greenbelt,
• · Severely restricted the use of private land due to wetlands, aNSI and buffer zone designations that devalued the land, resulting in significant financial loss.

Excessive and intrusive legislation that provides no value and creates an un-competitive field for rural business, farms, and people with unjust acts such as:

• The chlorinated drinking water act, deceptively named the "safe drinking water act
• The manure mismanagement act, hidden beneath ‘the nutrient management act’,
• The landowners at risk act, camouflaged as the Species at risk act
• The rural people and business clearances act, disguised as the EPa.
• The water meter implementation act, falsely labeled as "ground source water, protection act

Rural Ontario’s wealth and prosperity is being traded and taken away without compensation. The OLa Demands politicians enshrine in the constitution, "the freedom to own, use, and enjoy; and the opportunity to earn a living from our private property. and that this fundamental freedom cannot be infringed upon without full, fair and timely compensation" and that this freedom cannot infringe upon the rights and freedoms of others.
