We the farmers call on citizens of BC, to unite for FOOD and Water SECURITY. Legislation, is altering our land and water rights making it diffcult to farm and supply our community with organic, healthy, meat, dairy, grain, eggs, fish and produce.

WE NEED YOUR HELP. We can't push back against the bills and acts being passed, on our own.

 

The issues BC farmers are facing:

• Manditory compliance through well registration. (Land Act) If registered it binds farmers to new laws. If refused, water use is physically shut off.
• Property tax up by 400%! If outside the ALR, Bill 36, can assess farm value 'as if' the land had buildings and future worth thus forcing farmers to sell their established farm land.
• Complaints about smell or noice about roosters or fertilizer. See this article about Salt Spring Island.
• Slaughter regulations and license regulations eat up profits. (Unless for private consumption.)
• 770 acres of ALR removed from designation of farmland in the Fraser Valley.
