Commission examines boundary adjustments within agricultural land in Chilliwack between 1991 and 2008 Former solicitor-general John Les's home is one of the files the Agricultural Land Commission will be reviewing as part of its investigation into farm land deals in Chilliwack. The land commission is examining all "boundary adjustments" within agricultural land in Chilliwack, between 1991 and 2008, and Les's home was created through such a process, The Vancouver Sun has confirmed through documents obtained under the Freedom of Information Act. The boundary adjustment that created the property bought by Les was approved by Chilliwack city hall but did not need the okay of the land commission, which oversees the Agricultural Land Reserve.
