Something to think about.

WATCH: Ontario Premier Doug Ford is asking municipalities and regions across the province to seize farmland for industrial investors that don’t exist.

In an April 11, 2024, press conference in Cambridge, Ontario, Ford said he has asked regions and municipalities across the province to assemble land for potential industrial investment purposes, including 770 acres of farmland in Wilmot Township, just outside of Kitchener, Ontario.

The Canadian Independent visited Wilmot Township to investigate what is happening and who would be affected by this land grab. We learned that this land grab would affect precious farmland that amounts to 582 football fields in size, and includes 6 farm owners and would disrupt or decimate a significant portion of agricultural activities in the area.

We visited Mountainoak Cheese, which is affected by the land grab. They are an award-winning, highly reputable dairy farm and a fair-sized cheese production company that sells a wide range of cheeses locally from its storefront. Mountainoak Cheese also supplies its products to hundreds of major and independent grocery stores, as well as various other businesses across the province.

We chatted with the owners of Mountainoak Cheese to hear what they had to say. Adam van Bergeijk moved to Canada from Holland and established Mountainoak Cheese, which has been operating for nearly 30 years. His son, Arjo Van Bergeik, oversees the cattle portion of the business, while Adam manages the day-to-day cheese operations.

Adam says he was approached in March 2024 with an offer to buy his land at an unreasonably low price per acre. Arjo, Adam's son, mentioned that the region has plans to start leveling the farmland as early as August 2024. However, none of the six landowners are currently willing to sign any agreements, leaving everything in a state of uncertainty.

Adam mentioned that the Mountainoak Cheese store front location will not be affected by the land grab. However, the 350 acres of crop they own and rent just north of his storefront location is what they use to feed their cattle, and without that feed, they aren't sure what they will do.

The farmers have hired a lawyer and launched a website called https://t.co/1vHVSvT4lT. They are also selling lawn signs to raise awareness and have initiated a petition, gathering over 30,000 signatures so far to hopefully stop the land grab.

Farmers in Ontario have been rallying together in recent years to raise awareness about the alarming rate of farmland loss.

A significant loss of farmland occurred recently in St. Thomas, Ontario, where farmers faced a massive farmland grab that wiped out nearly 1,500 acres of prime farmland for a 2 million square foot Volkswagen electric vehicle battery plant. This project, backed by the Ford and Trudeau governments.

Premier Doug Ford's conservative government has proposed Bill 185, which aims to expedite certain expropriations and, for the first time, permit local municipalities to provide subsidies to attract new companies. As of April 17, 2024, Bill 185 was under consideration in its second reading and had been referred to the Standing Committee on Finance and Economic Affairs.

There is speculation that Honda Canada is set to announce a multi-billion-dollar deal with Ontario later this week to build electric vehicles, leading many to wonder if Honda plans to use the land in Wilmot for that purpose.

The Canadian Independent will continue to monitor this story and bring any new developments.

@wrdsb Possibly on time to release the report on April 1. Sounds about right.

Fun fact: the schools intentionally launch kids into social and emotional crisis. The literature is explicit (see below).

They do this because kids don't like being in crisis and want to resolve their pain, confusion, or trauma as fast as possible.

The very people that fling children into crisis extend their hand afterward, offering "love bombs" and a predetermined path forward (activism, "gender-affirming care," etc., etc.)

Reps from 130 unions across Canada held a Zoom call yesterday.

They’re organizing counter-protests so they can fight back against those of us who don’t want to sterilize kids.

They repeatedly call us fascists and nazis and all the usual hyperbolic nonsense.

These people represent every union in Canada.

4 million Canadians are paying for this through their union dues.

Some crazy lady starts talking about our last protest in Ottawa at the 34-minute mark.

@ScottPiatkowski I agree. Protect children from the government. School board trustees and directors included.

@CrisBairosFern @wrdsb A few excerpts from the sample available on Amazon

[CoolGreenLoon @CoolGreenLoon]

@CrisBairosFern @wrdsb This needs to be emphasized.

K-6. Early elementary school, not high school.

105 copies. There are 104 elementary schools in the board, assuming the website is up to date.

Some kids know they want a tattoo as young as 2-3 years old. Early signs include using markers to draw on their arms, repeatedly reaching for a pen placed in front of them, and making the sounds “t-ah,” and/or “t-ouh.”

Be an inclusive adult. Tell them about people with tattoos. Show them pictures of all the pretty tattoos, and ask them, “do you want a tattoo?”

You will see… Kids just know!

@ChanLPfa This student walkout is more constructive and civilized than trustees at a school board meeting.

[CoolGreenLoon @CoolGreenLoon]

@CrisBairosFern It's disappointing to see one of our own trustees amplifying this ridiculous hyperbole

@DrArendt @CrisBairosFern @wrdsb How would this work for books accessed in the library and e-books?

[CoolGreenLoon @CoolGreenLoon]

How exactly do parents exercise their "right to determine which books their children may read"? @wrdsb

[Waterloo Region DSB @wrdsb]

Want to know how books and other materials end up in our school libraries? We follow a set of guidelines to select and review our library materials. Watch a short video or read through the full procedure: https://t.co/dkgnFlxBYn #WRDSB

[CoolGreenLoon @CoolGreenLoon]

@wrdsb What is the process for parents to exercise their "right to determine which books their children may read", as claimed at 2:00 in the WRDSB provided video here?
