NCC Capital Urban Lands Plan-December 17, 2021.

 Agricultural and Horticultural Research Designation "The Central Experimental Farm is a National Historic Site of significant importance to the Capital. The Agricultural and Horticultural Research Designation applies to the Central Experimental Farm's agricultural research plots and the Dominion Arboretum, owned and managed by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada. The agricultural research plots and the adjacent arboretum make significant contributions to Canadian knowledge in agriculture and horticultural science. The Central Experimental Farm, established in 1886, provides a unique rural setting in the centre of the urban region. If the research requirements of the Farm or the Arboretum change over time, their valued contribution to the Capital Greenspace should be conserved. 

Two other components of the Central Experimental Farm are identified under separate land designations to reflect their current function. The Canadian Agricultural Museum, a National Cultural Institution is identified under the Cultural Installation and Facility. The Skyline Complex as well as other laboratories and offices located south of Carling Avenue are identified under the "Other Federal Facility" designation."

savecfbrockcliffe- I have a few questions: 1.) Are construction companies and Ottawa City Hall more powerful than Agriculture Canada? Several local politicians approved the construction of towers on Carling Avenue across from the Farm--- and research land and greenhouses will be negatively impacted by shadows. 

2.) Why does the City of Ottawa have the power to remove federal land from Baseline Road, Carling Avenue and the Arboretum for transit projects. 

3.) Why is the government of Canada selling agricultural land to China and Bill Gates---when the government should be teaching children in this country about nutrition, how to grow food and test water. And we should be encouraged to establish our own farms. When I was growing up, every classroom had Canada's Food Guide posters on the walls, and we learned how to cook and sew through classes in home economics. I will never eat "alternate sources of protein" World Economic Forum and World Health Organization. I do not care if the federal government recently signed a treaty with the WHO. More than ever before, my country needs the Canadian Food Inspection Agencies on Carling Avenue and the Greenbelt. 

In the year 1996, 50 of the Farm's 82 buildings were slated for demolition.
