without thinking about the possible outcome of these events. The human approach to this situation would have been get the license plate number, video tape if needed and give it to the police or bylaw official to take care of. In my observation the gentleman who took the video had good intention at first but as time went on it was more about likes, posts, re-posts and shared. Than the actual issue at hand. Do insensitive and litterers need calling out? Yes. Does that mean any subsequent…

They only had men and most of these men were gentleman or artisans who did not know how to farm. Many of these men came over looking for precious metals and adventure rather than coming over to farm plots of land. This became known as a “starving time” despite the bountiful land the settlers had…
