In Saskatchewan, Canada, foreigners were allowed to own up to 160 acres of land total (a quarter section of land). That's very small but big enough to let you have a house and enough land to sustain yourself. And that's fair. If you wanted to own more, you have to be living in the province which up until recently meant you had to be a Canadian citizen.
The Sask Party threw those rules out almost a decade ago. The one thing I absolutely do not like about their party was that. Since then they've got foreign investor companies running around buying land up from retiring farmers who simply can't pass on their farms since it's too expensive to farm now.
I don’t think you need 160 acres to sustain your family.
If you're selling grain or raising a few head of cattle, then yeah. At least that was what the idea was when they put it into law back then.
