"No more agriculture"? Last I checked, food was a basic human need, so as long as people need and want food, there will be a high demand for it, and a correspondingly high likelihood that others will anticipate a profit from producing this elusive good.

That is, of course assuming the young lady decides whether it belongs to the natives or nature.

In BRANT, Six Nations have claims on the land in question, which is along the river trail. Land bankers and financial consortiums from other countries have bought up huge tracks of farmland in and around BRANT county, which does threaten our food security, especially since this are provides much of the food to the Greater Toronto area.

actually there are tons of trees and places to be in nature where we live. we are trying to make are city a better place and development is part of it. development is a good thing or are city wouldnt be what it is. so if u have a problem with are city growing maybe u should hug a tree.

"Nature" has property rights? Does it pay taxes? Can it appoint representatives, or do certain "chosen people" just know that they speak for "nature"?

[Bosco20061217]

So in the name of economic protectionism, we should delegate our "food security" to the Six Nations? Since it is allegedly *their* land, can they starve us, or can we depend on their pity?

WE also if I might addrees this, we also have a huge problem directly in our Watershed here in Grand River Country, particularly in Brantford where I am presently working on a Project regarding the direct impact development is having on D'Aubigny Creek, and consequerntly into the "Exceptional Waters" of the Grand River.

Ironically the development that is affecting D'Aubigny is directly related to what this video above speaks to. The lands were once farmed and now are replaced with row houses.
