Canada needs a new northern coast to coast rail line for mass immigration and agricul

Not unless they are willing to pay for it.

Well for one Russia doesn't import oil and sanctions have them cut off from food.

Not when economy of scale is applied and the government pays for it instead of Canadian tax payers paying welfare and have people sit on their rumps instead of working a profitable farm.

Do you have any idea how much farmland is worth let alone the expense of equipment and who is going to teach them how?

Welfare would be far cheaper.

It's from 1970 but I do not believe it has been voided.

Buying land is not the same as homesteading it.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homestead_Acts


The Homestead Acts were several United States federal laws that gave an applicant ownership of land, typically called a "homestead," at no cost. In all, more than 270 million acres of public land, or nearly 10% of the total area of the U.S., was given away free to 1.6 million homesteaders; most of the homesteads were west of the Mississippi River.


Note. Given away.


Granted that that is the U.S. version. I could not find the Canadian one, but did find the general principles.

No Russian's are going hungry. Want to know how many businesses in the EU tanked because their best customers were black-balled for saving Crimea from the fate the Ukraine is suffering?

Sanctions on Russia is COSTING the European Union billions, figures reveal

SANCTIONS slapped on Russia by Brussels have inadvertently cost the European Union (EU) a staggering €30billion (£27bn) in lost income, according to a report.

Why would we ship oil or even food for that matter to Russia?

Glasnost.


It is better to keep our enemy close.

Free? It never was free under the Dominion Land Act.

A lease of a penny a year is possible.

Lol, except for the trillions they have in natural resources. You may want to look at our national debt and the rate it is going before you determine who is broke and who isn't. Russia is helping Venezuelan with a Few $B when we should have been doing that rather than trying to make their life as shitty as possible in our attempt to gain favor with the world banks.

Who's the slave and who's the master?

Bullshit. Homestead cost $100 120 years ago and all you got was land. Most of it was bush that needed clearing followed by clearing all the rocks before a plow hits the soil.

That takes years even by today's standard.

 

[MHz]

inadvertently?

You should know the kind of people you are sleeping with.


I think that is NATO claiming they didn't see the cutbacks as hurting the producers. Crock of shit really. NATO and Co care as much about the people of the EU as the US does about Iraqi children.

No house, no power, no water, no animals, no plow, no seed.

Way back then you also got the mineral rights.

 

[petros]

No you didn't. "To the depth of a plow" is still the today's standard.

No house, no power, no water, no animals, no plow, no seed.

No overlords. These days a homesteader could put the land up as collateral so a loan to speed up those developments would almost be part of the application.

Past costs are irrelevant to the issue.


Clearing land and building homes and barns with the wood cleared and heating homes with the rest does not take long when considering the number of hands we will have if the program outlined is adopted.


City bread Canadians do not have a clue about homesteading and communal small town living.


I have lost the link but a guy has a program that says that it is relatively easy to have 5,000 people live self sustaining prosperous lives if they cooperate. He is apparently looking for town who are willing to give his method a try.


Apologies for not having the link, but what I put is a fact.

They won't give a loan on undeveloped land.

Read up on FCC regs.

Want to see some gravel pits on private land that have made the owners quite rich?? How about some farms for sale that include revenue from a well on the land??
