Land ownership laws in Sask & Can

[newguy]

In the past people have paid good money for improvements and to take over the lease.Will hurt some of the original ranches that lease 10 to 30 sections.when I started I out bid Landbank to buy land.Land is up in price but so is fence and dugout. And mine never had either when we got it.3 men switched off pounding posts by hand.This land was not being used before and now you say it should be put up to public for tenders?

no sorry , was talking about land bank land only . big thing here in the eighties was sell land to land bank , kids rent it forever at half the rent rates . mostly good NDP ers got it

tstep , is that legal ?

Devil's advocate:

What if the guy from Ireland had family in Canada that willed him that land?

Does lineage account for anything if they live outside the country and were never residents? Can it legally be willed to a non resident?

The whole thing I am ticked about is NDP made me pay more for my land And Sask Party wants me to sell it cheaper .Both for the sake of young farmers.Governments should just stay out of it.

This guy in Ireland supplied the money to a corporate name for a land manager to buy this land. Loop hole!! What's now when he wills or rolls this land to his family. IMO he should be made to sell it back to a Canadian or loose it.
