2013/03/09 Addendum: In Document 14 above (2013/02/21), at Section 9.m, I declare that I live in a food desert. In the description of this local condition, I failed to mention a butcher shop that is about 5 km from the centre of our hamlet. This butcher shop, Papa's Meats, sells meats, cheese, locally caught whitefish, and a limited supply of canned goods, breads, and dairy products. Unfortunately, they don't normally carry any fruits or vegetables (neither fresh nor frozen). On page 2 of Document #15 below (2013/02/22), I made a similar statement about living in a food desert, and again failed to mention this same butcher shop. My thanks to Joan at Papa's Meats for suggesting this clarification. - 2013/02/22, G.Black -->OMAF + Premier, Request change to Meat Regulations

A blog to communicate, discuss, and advocate for the civil rights and important role Small Flock Poultry Farmers can play (and should play) in Canadian Society. Small Flockers are on the side of justice & truth, and against privilege & power. Unfortunately, the more we compromise with privilege and power, the more we reduce the capacity for truth and justice.
