The following was reported: On June 19th, between the hours of 1100 and 1600, the farmer sprayed his crop/field, situated directly East of our yard/residence. I motioned/waved to get his attention, but was not successful. I was standing right by the municipal road. I took the first video at 1300. It was very windy, from the SE. The wind speed with the high rate of speed of the tractor/sprayer combined to move the chemical cloud quite a distance onto our property. The spray covered our gardens, fruit trees, house, vehicles and everything on our property including our renters canola crop.
