Save Farmland

1.1% of B.C. can be used for growing a wide variety of crops. We need to save it. Those little green bits on the map= ALR. #saveoursoil #savefarmland

[Save Farmland @SAVEFARMLAND]

Remember this? “Alexa Loo consistently voted for those 30,000 sq foot mansions”. Along with Derek Dang. Don’t repeat the mistakes of the past. Keep them out of #RichmondBC council chambers.

Remember this #RichmondBC last time around? Vote wisely. We’ve lost enough land to Mega Mansions, we need a council that will actually protect it and work to enhance small scale farming in our city.

[Save Farmland @SAVEFARMLAND]

How does this look? Is this the most corrupt city in Canada? #RichmondBC councillors approve mega mansions on farmland & weeks later get fundraiser from “Farmland Owners” (note: they are not called farmers). #bcpoli #vanre #ALR #voteALR #votethemout

[Save Farmland @SAVEFARMLAND]

Today: Vote for councillors and mayors who value the #ALR in BC. Growing more locally- one of the ways we can begin to adapt to climate change.

[Mike Hudema @MikeHudema]

Dear Humanity, #ClimateChange threatens our existence.
If we don't act soon there'll be catastrophic biodiversity loss & untold amounts of human misery.
Time's running out.
Yours,
15,000 concerned scientists

Act, before action is no longer possible. #ClimateCrisis

[Laura Gillanders @Gillanders_L]

@Harold_Steves @HaneyInkslinger Derek Dang's profile in the candidate booklet states "we need to protect the #ALR for our future BUT must balance that with growth that allows for a balanced economy". Best not to follow any sentence about protecting ALR with a BUT. #RichmondBC

[ClimateChange Steves @Harold_Steves]

I 'm very concerned about protection of the #ALR when I retire. A lobbyist is trying to convince staff to remove restrictions against industry on farmland & #MegaMansion supporters haven't gone away. Please support Laura Gillanders, chair of the Agricultural Advisory Committee

[Michelle @mintgreenapron]

Why is Heed is running in #RichmondBC with Dang? Why does Dang mention balancing priorities on #ALR? Is it the link to someone who aims to dismantle current ALR regs? More info on candidates backgrounds needed: https://t.co/aAJeMiAs2O @cbcnewsbc @WestcoastWood @TheRichmondNews

[ClimateChange Steves @Harold_Steves]

Only the @bcliberals know the answer to why the amount of money to qualify as a "farmer" to get farm taxes hasn't increased above $2,500/year . Maybe It is one of the questions that should be asked at the Money Laundering Inquiry.

New show featuring “luxury realtor” Layla Yang...brought to you in part by luxury mansions & speculation on the #ALR. #bcpoli #vanre #RichmondBC

@FARMWATCHBC Meanwhile, “controversial” luxury realtor to ALR exploiters, Layla Yang, got herself a TV show. #bcpoli #ALR #vanre #RichmondBC https://t.co/5gQ8BbAN4x

[Richmond FarmWatch @FARMWATCHBC]

Mansion being flipped after entire farm was replaced with private lake, boats, boathouses, racetrack. Left a small strip of blueberries which will provide tax break. #ALR #bcpoli #RichmondBC #vanre

Richmond councilor and BC Liberal candidate Alexa Loo voted against the referral for a park & additional rentals.

"Loo also questioned whether greenspace was safe for children to play in"

Loo. It's always Loo.

[steveston in Canada @stevestonnotri1]

@TheRichmondNews And who votes against green space & much needed rentals? Well it's "people are freaking out about a bunch of dirt" Alexa Loo. And that other councilor who also consistently voted for mega mansions on the ALR. No surprises here.

[steveston in Canada @stevestonnotri1]

Can you take it? Just one more picture of what the BC Liberals did to arable agricultural land here? Who needs the River Rock for a wash and rinse.

[Richmond FarmWatch @FARMWATCHBC]

Liberal leader Andrew Wilkinson did not respond to our request for an official party pledge to keep house size limits on #ALR #farmland. Individual candidate pledges cannot bind a party. Our response to Liberal MLA Paton. #bcpoli #BCElection2020 #BCelxn2020

[Richmond FarmWatch @FARMWATCHBC]

A reminder to the voters of BC, the #bcndp passed Bill 52 which stopped mega mansions on #ALR #farmland. But we are always ONE election away from mega mansions returning as the #BClibs have promised RE lobbyists to repeal if elected. #bcpoli

[steveston in Canada @stevestonnotri1]

And #RichmondBC councilor Alexa Loo consistently voted for those 30,000 sq foot mansions. She is now running for the BC Liberals. Don't reward her destruction of agricultural land with your vote.#bcpoli #BCelxn2020

[Lord Humungus 🇨🇦 of Vancouver @RodneyGibson604]

@Harold_Steves @Melhathnofury The Fraser Valley is teeming with new mansion starts.

These aren't row homes. That's 2 houses.
