"next next next"

You're right, Ciara.
Prime farmland falls like dominoes from Whitby to Niagara. Much of it was Class 1 & 2 land, now pavement. When climate is factored in, it was a big chunk of the best foodland in Canada.

Preserving prime farmland is an extremely difficult thing to do, but our nation must address it or our grandkids will be extremely vulnerable a half-century from now. If present trends continue, there will be precious little prime foodland left.
