We are privileged to live in a country that has provided so much to us: from political and social freedoms, to productive agricultural land, to the amazing comunities that define and refine us. We are blessed to live in Canada, and as we continue on, we want to make sure that the Canadian way of life is preserved for generations to come. In this section, we hope to make you aware of the pressing issues facing this country. As a good opener, we suggest reading Tom Benner's essay about food security, and why buying local is so important in the global economy. We also have a number of essays, written by various members of the Benner clan, that pertain to the necessity of curbing our consumption, protecting the environment and creating communities that are inclusive and safe for everyone.
