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.

Les Petits Fruits de Pré-d'en-Haut

5 hrs · 

Dear Primer Blaine Higgs,
My husband and I operate a large horticulture farm in Pré-d’en Haut , Memramcook. N-B on which we hire 40 foreign workers.
April 28, 2020, has been a very sad day in New Brunswick with the announcement from our Prime Minister stating the forbidding temporary foreign workers to N.-B.
The Prime Minister and his entourage are very disconnected to the reality on our farms and to what it represents to farm in 2020. An agricultural worker is a specialize trade just like any order profession. One must have very little knowledge on how it is demanding and how much resilience it require to practice this trade, and to think that anyone can improvise to be an agricultural worker. Quite often, the agricultural occupation responsibilities demand physical work 10 hours/day, 7 days/week, in cool, cold, wet, hot, humid temperatures. The task may require the worker to do his work standing up, on his knees or bend over, which cause back pain, shoulder ache and sore hands.
In these pandemic times, for the past two months, we have been informed of the importance of agriculture in order to guarantee our food autonomy while supporting our economy as well as the importance to support local products. Prime Minister, what have you not understood? We were asked to implement a plan to isolate the foreign workers at the arrival for 14 days. We have strictly followed the requirements. We have purchase masks, hand and surface disinfectants. We have modified our vehicles to include Plexiglas to isolate the driver. Without any exception, we have done all what was required.
Despite our efforts to attract local workers, every year, it has always been a race against time to harvest all our crops. We always have fruit and vegetables that are lost due to frost damage in the fall or strawberry and blueberry that are lost due to overripening due to lack of time to harvest. One may think that agriculture only takes place during the summer months. On our farm, we start our operation in April until the end of December and even in January before we have package and sold our products.
It has been eleven years that foreign workers have work on our farm. We also hire local workers who want to work on our farm. We continuously poste adds on our website, Jobbank, Kijiji, and Facebook. So far this year, we have received 8 Canadians applications, two of them wants to be paid under the table and two were thirteen years old. So, my understanding is that we have four potential full-time workers. Therefore, Prime Minister, do you really think this is how we are going to replace our 40 Jamaican specialize agricultural workers? And, do you know that the Seasonal Agricultural Worker Program exist since 1973?
This year, we already foresee a very difficult year due to the Canadian border closure and the delay of the foreign workers on our farm. At this time, we are barely trying to catch up. You say it is only temporally. Are we going to wait until our fruits are lost in the field before you allow access to our workers?
We would like to remind you that the N-B agriculture sector is a key element to the province economy representing a turnover of over one billion. It is not negligible for a poor province such as ours.
It is a very sad day for our democracy, in a country like Canada. Therefore, Prime Minister, please let us our workers. They are essential.

By the way, in case you aren't already aware, the activism against the Teck Frontier mine has been funded as part of ROCKEFELLER Tar Sands Campaign for at least six years already. "for efforts to build the case for rejecting Shell & Teck Frontier mines" Here's the evidence:

Chris Katko Cartoonist USA - the Pope for Les Hicks and the mrs.. in Wark Times Lands...

Sally, when you refer to your elected MLA as Sweetie, and honey, that is not respectful, but disparaging. This is one more example of your resorting to name calling when you disagree with someone else. Does a ‘pro life’ Catholic like yourself also support priests molesting children and having their crimes hidden by the hierarchy of the Catholic Church? I would suggest that you ‘respectfully’ ask the leaders of your church to tell their priests to ‘leave the children alone’.

[Hicks' comment left with Bruce Wark's website recently in response to another comment -- I regularly criticize Megan Mitton's advocacy - I didn't vote for her.]

” to passing a ban on conversion therapy…. ”
Really? As a pro-life Catholic I really could not disagree more strongly with Megan on this…
Sweetie.. you cannot speak for everyone in Tantramar.. that’s not your job honey.
I would respectfully ask you to leave the children alone and stop trying to make them over in your image of what they should be. If parents want help to counsel their children that is not your business to interfere… nor is it your job to socially engineer the voters to think as you do.
Just do your job and listen to the voters.. all of them.. thanks."

FYI - I'm not a member of any church Les because you see the New World Pope is just another insufferable climate hysteric and doesn't seem to have much intellectual capacity... there's a lot of that going on with establishment figures.. you might have noticed.  I am still pro-life because that's my ethical stance.  So really the Pope is your guy.. not mine.. aren't you and the mrs. climate hysterics? I thought you were:  https://www.facebook.com/FayeHicks4/ .. anyways.. in my world calling someone "sweetie" and "honey" is a term of endearment.. after all .. I could be Megan's Mum and what do all good mothers do -- not bullshit their children.
Our government is not in the business to socially engineer the minds of the population, or at least it shouldn't be; but politicians like Megan are always meddling and advocating - its called 'social justice' and its a very radical and extreme agenda - university education is the problem.  It would be great if Megan began "advocating" for jobs and local farming and industry.. she could start with Hemp History Week - that's got to be a Green Win-Win eh?  Hemp Industry, Hemp Production and Products are a great Real Green thing to identify with for this region that is mostly rural.. and a lot more fun and fruitful than Carbon Tax and Climate Fear Week [ https://warktimes.com/2019/02/15/climate-change-week-sackville-audience-hears-about-the-benefits-of-carbon-taxes/ ]  I just like to try to make positive and helpful suggestions... eh? Its OKAY to promote Hemp industry in Tantramar; its good.
Vote Hemp.... we can't all be on the government payroll and feed at their trough.. right?

Les – ITS OKAY TO BE PRO-LIFE.
Isn’t it interesting you were so triggered by “honey” and “sweetie” and “catholic” Les?
I think it shows your weakness when you are triggered and offended on behalf of an MLA who does have a job working for the taxpayers and is always open to criticism of her advocacy.. I obviously did not vote for Megan Mitton but I am definitely not name calling here.. if anything I am asking why government should be meddling in family counselling and mental health issues. Are you so clueless on this issue really? Megan is technically young enough to be my daughter and as a parent I always have believed that lying to children is wrong. Hope that clears up your confusion here.
p.s. promoting government abortions in a nation with no abortions laws is immoral.
