Heffer Family Threatens Buck & Jo’s in Attempt to Murder What’s Left of Canada #EndHefferBullying

(Wingham, ON) A restaurant in the heart of Wingham is once again facing threats from the Heffer family. The situation escalated several weeks ago after the North Huron Reeve/Mayor was confronted at a council meeting regarding his abuse of the by-law department and his threats to search and seize private property without a warrant. At the next council meeting, Paul Heffer took steps to remove public comments and is refusing to allow questions during council meetings.

Several weeks ago, someone claiming to be Jeremy Heffer entered Buck & Jo’s demanding that the F Paul Heffer flags come down. Jeremy and the owner had a discussion in which he agreed that the restaurant had the right to fly the Heffer flags, especially on their own street corner, and he apologized. This person then went to North Huron Reeve Paul Heffer to demand that questions be allowed at council meetings.

After the meeting with Reeve Paul Heffer, Jeremy returned to Buck & Jo’s with paperwork threatening a defamation lawsuit unless the flags were taken down and an apology was issued to the Heffer family, or the Herd as he refers to them. Defending against this threatened lawsuit would cost about $50,000 in court.

This terrorist tactic by the Heffer family, if successful, would extinguish the last ember of democracy and free speech in Canada. Buck & Jo’s gained international fame when they planted a Canadian flag in the middle of their dining room floor and stood their ground against segregation enforcement during the “apocalypse.”

The Heffer family, apparently united, is attempting to destroy the last -remaining few hundred square feet of preserved “Glorious and Free Canada.” Jeremy Heffer can be contacted at 519-291-8101 for verification, or contact a member of council below.
