Defending Property Rights In Ontario
This Land is Our Land

About Us

The Ontario Landowners Association goals and objectives shall be to uphold fundamental principles of Ontario landowners property rights, of natural justice, and to preserve and protect the rights of Ontario property owners.

Well, to understand how this movement got started, we would have to say that if government and their agencies had been doing their job of helping people solve their problems, supporting and encouraging new building and local businesses, and serving the public as they are paid to do, then the landowner movement would have died on the drawing board.
