The Ban
the Cannons group
is dedicated to stopping noise pollution from blueberry farms in
the Fraser Valley of British Columbia, Canada. These farms use
exceptionally loud bird
scare devices called propane cannons in an attempt to keep birds away
from their berry crops.
Our group supports responsible farm practices and environmentally
friendly farms. Blueberry farms can easily meet these objectives by using nets
and
other silent bird deterrents in areas where farms
are located close to their neighbours.
If you are a victim of propane cannon noise, please explore our website further.
Learn more about the impact of noise on your hearing and on your health.
Then if you decide that you want a little peace and quiet in your life, or if
you are
concerned about your health and well being, or if you just feel imposed upon by
a noisy disrespectful neighbour,
please join our group.
We are a non-profit, law abiding group of people, who are absolutely dedicated
to the cause of regaining one of our basic human rights, ie. the right to peace
and quiet on our own property.
In 2009
a very active new group from the Fraser Valley community of Surrey joined Ban
the Cannons. This group represents home owners living in many Surrey
communities, in particular the north side of Highway #10. If you live in
Surrey and are affected by propane cannon noise, please visit our
Surrey Ban the Cannons web page.
In 2008
a new group was formed in Whatcom County,
in Washington State, USA. This group,
The Creative Scarecrows,
are trying to convince local farmers to use silent birds control methods
instead of bombarding their neighbours with non-stop noise. If you want to
find out more about this group, please visit the
Creative Scarecrow's web page.
