This link is really helpful on hemp and construction eco building presentation

Take Notice:  "Hemp History Week" is June 2018 ... more to follow .. in the coming weeks and months.... I'm also recommending people keep up with the work of former Tantramar resident Rick Simpson at his publishing company simpsonramadur.com .. Rick's advocacy work for this plant is unmatched in Canada ... Happy Birthday on November 30th Rick.. a true Cdn hero.

So the historical record for Tantramar shows us that:


In 1767, Sackville had already made considerable progress.  A return made by Lieut. Governor Franklin, embracing a census of the 30 townships into which the Province was then divided, shows Sackville had then a population of 349 persons, 343 of whom were Americans.  It possessed also the following:--

Horses 48
Oxen 133
Cows 250
Young head cattle 347
Swine 63
Grist Mills 1
Saw 1

Produce in 1766--
Wheat, bus.-- 1035
Rye, bus. 1278
Pease, bus. 53
Barley, bus. 35
Oats, bus. 34
Hemp seed 10 1/2
Flax seed 53
Flax 9
Born during the year 26
Died 6

In 1763, a petition from Cumberland for land grants was sent to the government.  Amongst the names on the petition were: Brook Watson, John Horton and Alex and William of the same name, Joseph Moore, Elijah Ayre, Obediah Ayre, Joseph Ayre, Samuel Gay and Martin Gay, Jonathan Eddy, Jonathan Coe, Daniel Gooden, Charles Oulton, Liffy Chappel, Jabez Chappell, Anthony Buck, Abel Richardson, George Allen, Nehemiah Ward, John Fillmore.

Dan Roodt: "The South African Crisis in World Perspective"



2016 --- Afrikaner author and activist Dan Roodt addresses the 2016 American Renaissance conference. He describes his people as the canaries in the coal mine. They are whites who have given up power to a non-white majority, and their fate signals what is in store if other white groups lose majority status.

Dr. Roodt explains that, despite the overwhelming prejudice his people face, Afrikaners might have a better future in South Africa than elsewhere in the Western world. They are reviving their distinctive culture and crowds spontaneously break into the old, apartheid national anthem, “Die Stem.” “There could be a crisis,” he said, “and we could take back the parts of the country that matter and once again fly our old orange, white and blue flag.” “The canary in the mine is not dead,” he said. “He is working,” chipping away at the rock face.

Plaasmoorde - genocide of white farmers is ongoing & ruthlessly brutal and under-reported by mainstream news.
