Saskatchewan has some of the strictest farmland ownership laws in Canada, restricting foreign ownership and limiting the size of holdings by certain investment trusts. As land prices soar, there is debate over whether these rules protect the "family farm" or unfairly limit the equity of retiring farmers wishing to sell. Recent pressure comes from large pension funds seeking stable assets. Proponents say banning institutional money keeps land affordable for local families. Opponents say it stifles investment and infringes on property rights.
