Craig Needles Podcast Episode 30: Paving Ontario's Farmland

With development proposals on farmland near London and elsewhere in Ontario, have we gone too far? Does more need to be done to preserve prime crop growing areas?

Crispin Colvin, who is on the Ontario Federation of Agriculture Board of Directors joins the podcast to share his thoughts.

Then, we focus on a specific project in Mt. Elgin.

Two women opposed to a new development there, Cath Kindree and Paula Bartlett, have helped start a group of citizens advocating for the project to be stopped. They tell us why they feel the land needs to be saved from development.
