Freedom of OUR Press


Home page of the Lantzville log states, "Because of the increasingly litigious nature of the debate about urban agricultural farming, the Log will no longer publish related articles or letters related to this topic. Only reports of actual proceedings and public record will be printed."

    • Chris J. Slater Exactly Nicole Shaw, "the voice" has been silenced but by whom? What freedom of the press? Well if that's what's happening, we're becoming less free every day! We need to tell whoever thinks they are in control here in Canada, those who would condone such censorship, many have fought and died for our rights and they best look out! Shame on the Lantzville Log for folding under such "pressure". They need to report this attempt to control OUR CANADIAN CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS to the RCMP! That's the story here. My father, mother, grandfather, grandmother, aunts and uncles fought in WWII to protect these rights this paper will now throw away! If they won't stand up to this sort of manipulation, I will. How about you people? Are you ready to defend our Constitution?

    • Chris J. Slater My post today to the Log: Thanks Lantzville Log for "Vegetables-To-Go" BY PATRICIA CHUEY on February 8, 2011. Excellent article except for one thing. The greatest danger to our health and continued existence on this planet comes from "Frankenfoods"! These are gentically modified organisms (GMO) manufactured by Corporations that have been given the RIGHT to patent the life they've "invented" by the United States of America. Sadly Canada has joined this foolishness. These foods are prohibited in the EU for very good reasons. The next greatest threat comes from the unnatural pesticides, insecticides and unnatural fertilizers manufactured from natural gas for instance. Same problems with a lot of pharmaceuticals. Next is the right of these corporations NOT to divulge what they are up to. They don't even have to tell us on their packaging that they have put this in our food and thus in our bodies. Help us Health Canada, your mandate comes from the people of Canada, not Monsanto, Dow and others! Will the Log fold to Monsanto and others? http://grownfoods.blogspot.com/ Stay tuned, WE can make a difference!
