Did you know there were laws put in against land ownership expansion in Alberta?
The Communal Property Act (Alberta, 1947–1973)
This act was designed specifically to restrict Hutterite expansion. It imposed three major limits on their ability to own land:
• Acreage Limit: No colony could own more than 6,400 acres of land.
• Distance Restriction: A new colony could not be established within 40 miles (about 64 km) of an existing colony.
• Government Permission: Hutterites were required to get permission from a government board (the Communal Property Control Board) before buying any land, a hurdle not required of other farmers.
