Canadian Sub-Urban Self Sufficiency

This article is directed to a readership that either; is already situated in suburban settings or are committed to realising this as a goal. The basic premises are: - That the preponderance of Canadians have opted for suburban or ex-urban housing (circa 86%) - That a detached house is present - That Self Sufficiency is a goal of the reader - That Self Sufficient households can be largely achieved with 'stepped' modest amortised costs - That Self Sufficiency begs knowledge, and therefore demands a learning curve - That investment and re-investment in infrastructure will result in long-range economies.
