Despite the surrounding fields, the tobacco industry has all but dried up over the last two decades in Ontario. This house may have been a casualty to that economic downturn.

There aren't many tobacco farms left in Ontario. From the early part of the 20th century right through the 1990s and even early 21st century, tobacco was king on the north shore of Lake Erie. The sandy soils were perfect, but societal changes have dried up much of the market. Now most former tobacco farms have converted to other crops like ginsing and vegetables.

The modern solar panels serve as a bit of contradiction. They will be supplying power into the larger electricity grid.
