(OP) User ID: 49986197 Canada 01/14/2014 09:42 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I've posted a couple of threads on this previously. I've included the thread links below to anyone not familiar with this. Quoting: amachiavellian Thread: Expropriation of the Meyers Farm Heating Up. [VIDEO] Thread: Frank Meyers Land Battle; HERE IS HOW IT ENDED ... Take a moment to LISTEN The (very) short story is that this 85 year old man's land has been expropriated for the expansion of CFB Trenton for a JFT2 training facility and he has been fighting it HARD. Monday began with two bulldozers showing up to level all the outbuildings. Frank put his tractor, with him in it, in their way. Shortly after that, people in support of Frank started showing up, and they just kept coming. Another person blocked the drive with an RV and the media joined the party. Up until today, the group of supporters that had stayed the night had paid heed to the warnings and not ventured onto the disputed land. This afternoon, they breached the property boundary and have now made camp. There's just a mere handful of them, and maybe they will all be arrested, but I applaud them for their diligence. Frank also called and has repeatedly asked for actual documentation that states this land is no longer his. Additionally he served the bulldozer operators a cease and desist order and currently has them at bay on the edge of the disputed property. I don't know what will happen from here ...

No citizen of this country should fear that's going to happen...especially an 85-year-old man," said Gibson. Quoting: [link to www.cbc.ca] — read for knowledge, not answers. |

Quoting: [link to canadaam.ctvnews.ca] "I didn't understand a thing. I was never given a copy of anything," Meyers told CTV's Canada AM on Wednesday morning. He said he's asked government representatives to meet with him since the hearing, but "nobody comes to see us. We've asked them. We've called them." In the letters he was distributing to visitors at his farm Tuesday, Meyers declared three points of contention with the deal. Besides providing "no benefit" and being "a causal source of harm," Meyers wrote that it "lacks the capacity to compel performance" and "lacks the power to force i (sic) or my person to be bound to perform under any and all of its terms and conditions." ... more at link Last Edited by amachiavellian on 01/15/2014 09:17 AM — read for knowledge, not answers. |
