Ontario Landowners Association

The Ontario Landowners Association shall defend and promote the principal of strong local governments, democracy, and natural justice and represent the interests of the rural community.

For Rural Ontario to survive, Property Rights and judicial reform must be enshrined into law at all three levels of Government, these being; Federal, Provincial, and Municipal.

Rural Ontario is under systematic attack by government bureaucracy and false environmentalism.

The Ontario Landowners have and will continue to expose and meet these threats with determination and resolve in the court of public opinion.

Will the OLA find justice in Renfrew?

In the spring of 2008, the Township of Horton in Renfrew County decided to install two 10000 gallon "septage" (sewage from septic tanks) storage tanks in the ground on Township property so they could participate in an experimental pilot project of spreading "septage" on farm land. The location that the Township chose is the problem. The tanks are directly across the road from Larry and Cindy Reid's house. The Reid family strongly objected to the planned location of the tanks as would any family. Who would want 20000 gallons of human manure - "septage" - stored in the ground only 125 feet from their home?

A Not so Green Bill 150

Very soon, the Liberal Government of Ontario will pass Bill 150. If this bill is passed in its current form, and you plan to sell or lease your house or an apartment in the future, you will have to get “an energy audit” of your property done by one of about 450 licensed energy auditors active in Ontario. The cost is about $300-$400 for this. Then, there will be more expenses waiting for you, the owner of the property, in the form of fixing the “deficiencies” found during the “energy audit”. That can add up to a substantial sum of money depending on the condition and age of your property. This unintended consequence will cause an untold hardship to those in our society who can afford it the least - senior citizens and low income families. Some of them may be unable to sell their homes as a result of this legislation.
