SEPTEMBER 4, 2019

AS PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED IN THE RURAL VOICE : In Ontario, the Partition Act allows a co-owner of property to apply to the Court to break up the co-ownership. If two or more parties own a piece of land, and one wants out, that co-owner is generally entitled either to an order dividing the property itself or, more often, an order requiring the sale of the jointly held property and the division of the proceeds.

After the creation of its active ingredient glyphosate in 1950, the product quickly became a widely-used herbicide because of its ability to kill weeds without harming nearby crops.

Underserved and socially, economically, and racially disadvantaged communities bear the burden of pollution, higher energy costs, limited resources, and limited investments in the clean energy and transportation sectors.
