CVRD Tax Hike Protest - 28-Feb-2024 - Duncan, BC
The CVRD is proposing another property tax increase. Last year it increased 11%, this year they propose an additional 19.33%. That is a more than 30% increase in two years!
Storm Ryder News brings you to the people on the street to get their take on this situation.
You can find COAP (Citizens Oversight and Accountability Project presents at TIMESTAMP 16:30 minutes) as well as concerned citizens holding the CVRD to account for this on the livestream recording of the CVRD meeting here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IbbXSSeKxEM

Feb 07,2024 Farmers' Tractor Convoy - Duncan BC
Landkeepers Society is receiving support from Cowichan Farmers who "Slow Roll" a Convoy of Tractors by the offices of the Cowichan Valley Regional District in protest. Nature Trust is requesting the CVRD to forward their application to the Agricultural Land Commission for a change of use of the land in the Cowichan Estuary currently being farmed to produce livestock feed. The Landkeepers Society https://www.landkeeperssociety.com/, COAP (Citizens Oversight and Accountability Project https://coap.ca/ ), and concerned farmers and citizens attended the meeting and provided feedback to the CVRD as to the discoveries they've made during the process that has ensued since the project proposal was revealed June 8th 2023 in the Citizen (local paper) as to why this project should not proceed. There were also some present who spoke in support of the project but predominantly the attendees were speaking against it.
The Nature Trust proposed project lacked in consultation with the public and adjacent landowners. If the project is approved, approximately 170 acres of uniquely productive farmland will be flooded because of the removal of dykes that Nature Trust is currently responsible for maintaining (a financial commitment they will be relieved of if the project is approved... which they will be funded for...hmm!) resulting in the flooding of the farmland with salt waters contaminated with the unaddressed sewage outflow from the municipality which could affect local freshwater wells and aquifers as indicated by the independent hydrology report paid for by the Landkeepers Society.
A question I ask folks interviewing is whether there are direct linkages already discovered between this seemingly local and singular issue ...and the worldwide phenomenon of Farmer Protest. The details of those linkages don't become crystal clear but there do seem to be obvious connections such as ballooning general inflation, fuel prices, Canada's carbon tax, proposed fertilizer restrictions, increased property tax, registering of private wells and increased regulations across the board.
So while this particular issue appears somewhat unique to the Cowichan Estuary, the parallels across the world are obvious. The United Nations Agenda for Sustainable Development in the Twenty-First Century is getting people's attention and Tractors have started rolling here. (As a side note, a recent poster has been anonymously revealed indicating Feb. 24th to be a nation-wide tractor protest in Canada naming multiple major cities)
So...the tractors rolled in support of the Landkeepers Society ...AND... they have other reasons for showing up as well.
