Went to the Markham Fair today- I highly recommend it! Such a great little fair.

Although my Aunt and late Uncle are founding members of Markham-Stouffville Hospital, and my late Uncle was I believe the first doctor in Unionville, I myself knew little about the area. I’m from Toronto. To me, this is ‘boonieville’!

Sadly, the area is exploding in population, and farmland (here and northward) is turning into suburbia at an alarming rate. Personally, I think it’s important to have a strong base of native-born or long-term resident Canadians to help handle the onslaught of mass immigration. Otherwise, the original character, values, conservationism, and traditions of Canada get lost. That’s just my 2 cents.

Integrity and decency, first and foremost. The stories I could tell you about that!
