Edward and John own residential lots of land in Ontario that are beside each other. The previous owners of the lots wanted to save themselves the cost of surveys and put up a fence on what they thought was the lot line between the two properties. Edward bought his lot in 1961, and from that time on began to landscape a 3 metre wide strip beside the fence; erecting a rock wall 3 metres from the fence; planting trees, shrubs, and flowers; and constructing a small fountain between the wall and the fence. In 1986, John purchased his lot and had a survey done, which disclosed that the fence had been placed 3.3 metres inside his lot, so John proceeded to move the fence back to the lot line and in the process destroyed all of the landscaping that Edward had done.

Assuming that the property was in the land registry system, in this case
a. Edward acquired ownership of the strip of land by adverse possession.
b. Edward acquired possessory ownership of the strip of land by adverse possession.
c. Edward is now the absolute owner of the strip of land.
d. the strip of land has become part of Edward's land, and Edward can sue John for the damage caused to his landscaping.
e. all of the above
