The Struggle to Save Canada's Farmland. December 2011

Summary: Every year Canada loses thousands of acres of farmland. The land is lost when farmers give up farming or sell their land to developers. But now some Canadians are trying to fight back. In this News in Review story we'll look at a group of farmers in Ontario who thought they were selling their land to a big company so it could grow potatoes, only to discover it was to be turned into a quarry.
