B.C. Farm Family Losing Home to Dam Project

Ken and Arlene Boon

Ken and Arlene Boon, a farm family from British Columbia’s Peace Valley, is being forced from their home to make way for BC Hydro’s $8.8-billion Site C dam project.

The Boons did not voluntarily sign their home away, forcing BC Hydro to take it from them.

"Arlene and I agreed we didn’t want to sign anything over. It just goes against every bone in our bodies. They’ll have to take it from us,” Ken said.
