Farmers Protest High-Speed Rail, Fearing Land Expropriation
Farmers in Mirabel, Quebec, rally against a proposed high-speed rail project, fearing land expropriation reminiscent of the Mirabel International Airport takeover fifty years ago. Led by local farmer Sylvain Ethier, who used his fathers tractor in the past protest, they aim to protect their heritage farms for future generations. Despite public consultations and assurances from the rail company, Alto, and officials, farmers remain skeptical due to new federal laws and the potential for land seizures without full negotiations.
