The Canadian Island CONTROLLED by America
This is the strangest border in North America. Canada’s Campobello Island is essentially controlled by the U.S. Because the city is only connected to America the residents who live on the island lead incredibly unique lives. Should this land mass even be part of Canada?

Will there ever be a resolve to this obsc...

The American City CONTROLLED by Canada

A mapping error has left this American city to be controlled by Canada.

Today, residents are essentially controlled by the Canadian government. In order for people who live in the Northwest Angle to travel to...

So, the wind turbines, solar panels and electric car's manufacturing and disposal isn't inclided in their footprint? Bc they leave a hell of a footprint, in addition to being extremely toxic. That's why wind trubines, solar panels and electric vehicle batreries have to be disposed of in specially designed landfills and disposal facilities.
this guy saw the writing on the wall decades before any of us. fantastic stuff
Where does my poop go when i flush... away from me.
Texas needs at least 5 of these TRUCK'S Stops
Is the USA going to give us back Point Roberts, an obvious map mistake? Is the USA going to give us back Ange Inlet, an obvious map mistake. Is the USA going to stop trying to steal our fishing rights and possible oil rights around Campobello where there is no map mistake? If the Canadians living on Campobello don't like the commute to mainland Canada, they can move to the mainland. How dare a handful of people try to give Canadian land (along with fishing rights and possibly oil reserves) to the USA.
6/3/2024 Everywhere where you find people, living as a GROUP, no matter how loosely, in this way, you will find that the government and the "snooty" portion of society opposing them. THEY ARE NOT HOMELESS, they just want to live their lives THE WAY "THEY" WISH TOO. There is nothing wrong with minimalistic living, just as Henry David Theroux what happens when you do. Some could live a bit "neater", but that's OK, although junk scattered around is what "generally" brings the government down on folks. Neat video. Independence in life and life style, however, for some reason threatens society. Maybe they are envious. ;-)
Is using wood out in middle of desert ... realy sustainable? And dont get me going on the petroleum made tires! Lololol you hippies are hilarious! Its like you took some bad acid back in the 70s!! Lolol
0:53 ~ "Why are we walking barefoot, through the woods, with a bottle of whiskey in our hands?" A question you'd never hear me ask. My response would always be, "WOOHOO! Let's go!". 😆
Years ago I read the story about how Findhorn was started. Quite fascinating. Eileen had to go to the cold bathrooms/toilets at the camp grounds to get some quiet space to meditate and get guidance. It was really cold. That part stuck in my mind because I hate being cold 😂
Good way to learn quickly about all the many places you are not allowed to drop anchor, or park !
America ?? You mean USA. Canadians are American by virtue of belonging to the North American Continent. Get your own demonym.
There is a sustainable community in Western Massachusetts called Sirius...the community began from finhorn
I like it.
Same with Louisiana, HWY- 55. Watch out for snakes, giant turtles, giant birds and fire ants.
Mancha Swamp Bridge. COME GET A WIFE! and some crawdads!
28:51 i need freedom im dying to be free
!
I like that there is a separate currency. I’ve seen it tried in different places and it seems successful and points to local prominent people and showcases local artists.
Let these people live there needs to be people like this in every country
I live on a houseboat in the Pacific Northwest. I live in a marina but not a fancy one. It's mostly old hippies.
Part i find funny is that they been talking about the climate crisis since 1972 and no money has been put into fixing it since then unless you are giving money to a politician who talks about it
nice houses but the location is horrible. just dust
So far, I like everything about your videos except the comment/promise of absolute freedom. Gravity, seasons, negotiations between people to make bartering possible... I think you need another word than freedom...
It would be cool to be able to say, "I drink rain".
10:30
I would absolutely build a compound like this and then I'd help people who needed it. Can you imagine how excellent this would be for mental health?! 🙏🏻🎗❤️🤍💙✊🏻💓🌻
As a kid I stayed at my grandparents house in Webster Springs W.V. about 45 minutes from Green Bank. These areas are very remote, and there isn't much around except the sound of wrestling trees in the wind, a running creek, and an occasional car going by. You can actually hear yourself think in this environment. It's a paradise for those who seek refuge from a fast pace society or it's a nightmare for somebody who desires the opposite.
6:04 The loss of Count Jehan is huge.
I want to visit!
Wonderful video and a wonderful lifestyle I lived for years in the Sausalito houseboat Community back in the day your viewers might like to search (the last free ride) Blessings
Would be easier using machines.
What can kill us,makes us feel alive ❤
its a shame that is so desolated and remote
I know people which by now would Hugh Tree and Feeling As One and the same With Nature and would still see me as a Lesser form of Life because I suffer and they don't like to watch at suffering... [Unless when they are turned on From it]
I totally get this and would do the same if my circumstances allowed it.
If they're gonna make passports mandatory they should foot the bill for them.
What a beautiful community!
The 2 second clip of the warcraft kid freaking out, It's about time he makes a comeback!
been there!! ❤❤❤
I think this is cool and it is untenable. To begin with most people on the planet cannot afford land. It has and continues to be hoarded by a few. Also, opportunities available to boomers that contributed to them being able to begin these projects no longer exist. It is not a coincidence that all these people are boomers.
That's cool good for them
Finding a loan isn't easy. Clearly no VA construction loan...propane generator for VA pickup. No government assistance either.... Must be cash...so don't believe any sales hype....see for yourself!!! Offgrid is cash only!!! Lots of cash only. sooooo high income can afford...
It's wonderful to learn about this amazing place. Hope this movement grows even more- I certainly will do my best. Although, I didn't like the sensationalist cutaways, and the interviewer was rude and disrespectful with his line of questions.
They are coming along, better and better. And they are not lacking a single thing. Water is short, but that's only because they live in a freaking desert. And as our main man said, this isn't keep the planet green, peace and love BS, it's just logical. Imagine not worrying about heat or air con?!?!?!?! Getting three times the use out of the water one uses? They are limited by size, so a city scale development is impossible. But for a rural/suburb density level, these are absolutely the correct answer. Fire proof, hurricane and Tornado resistant. Earthquake resistant. And most importantly, suitable for an ever increasing hotter planet. In far too many ways, corporations and governments are our enemies. And I am a die hard urban materialist.
Global warming is a lie
Oh man takes me back. I still use the very same email and account names from back then.
This is such a brilliant idea and it just makes sense to me...we the people have basically trashed the planet so to make good of this trash why not build an earth ship home and still live a fulfilling life & not just follow the mainstream way of life..I certainly could live in one of these, and have all the things that that I love to plant to grow and even better grow them inside my home, recycle my own waste to feed the plants , harness the sun wind and rain and live a reasonably free way life ...I think more people should look into this type of structure and learn new skills etc new friends and live in a wonderful community by the sounds of it. Like we have been wared for years and years about what we are doing to the planet yet Governments etc have just sat on their hands and continue to destroy the earth and it's only been in last however many years that they we decide to something about it even though scientists etc have been screaming out what we need to do to sustain life !! & I myself didn't really start to stop and have a really good think what this means so I have changed my thinking and very very conscious and remember that life is precious and so is the planet and do everything I can to look after it..!! So well done to the communities that have decided to live this way and I take my hats off to the man behind all this who started all this off what a great job you have done 👍 🦘🇦🇺🐨🙂💚
Nice project. More like this please. Less capitalism, more true societies.
This man this amazing architekt should be hired by NASA
Seems nice on the surface, but I get a cult-like vibe from the people he interviewed. I could be wrong I've never actually met them, but that’s the impression I got. The place gives off that energy of align with our ways or piss off. Which is fine it's their community they are entitled to that. Many details about the place remain obscure. When he asked that guy, so people live here for free? Boy, did he had to think that one through before answering. Hope I'm wrong, but that's the vibe I got from some of the residents.
you CANNOT grow your own food in that little of an area, lmao
man, walking out of your bedroom in to a long greenhouse like that would be amazing
