You are so fortunate to be dealing with peaceful people. Our Government is corrupt. I am so very sorry to all the good ones, but you are aware of the ways and means of how this is done with no fear of REPERCUSSIONS.
We have let this go on.
It is all tied up in the legal system that only the extremely educated understand. It is held at bay by political agenda and parliamentary procedure that is hundreds of years old.
Then the well trained and heavily armed Police come in with no regard for right or wrong, just the rules and the ones ones who make them up at need. The ones who sign the pay checks paid with our money.
I wonder what the situation will be when we the people finally wake up and say ENOUGH.
Although I can’t think of anything more important to life than water.

when things don’t make sense it may be helpful to look beyond to just who stands to gain from the implementation of dump 41.
not only will there be a great deal of money made hauling the garbage to this site but from what i understand there is a plan to haul the leachite to a yet to be built facility in thornbury of all places.

now is it not standard practice for these big companies to buy the support of those that can pave the way.

My thoughts exactly, Ernie. How can we trust these hooligans??

We must not be naive any longer…because we are peaceful protestors, unfortunately, we have been taken advantage of in a very shabby way!

The road is not ready BUT who can say Tony won’t allow/invite/order the trucks anyway before the moratorium date of Aug 25.

Especially if the water is now cloudy…maybe they have deliberately hit clay to muck it up…who knows…but then the Warden will simply dismiss this as “oh well the water is ruined anyway” and continue with this madness!

Did I miss something here…how is it a few misguided persons can literally thumb their noses at the law by withholding pertinent information (modflo) while others are facing criminal charges for allegedly participating in the blockade….

Lets all pray for rain in the next week!!!

Shoulder to Shoulder.

Sandi.

The County is dirtier than the water they’ve already polluted. Development needs to be stopped until at least the decision on the moratorium. We, and both the political and justice systems have seen how polluted the County’s decision making is; can we trust them working on the site weeks before voting on a moratorium?

We need Alex Jones here. He’s not afraid to get the truth.

He came to Ottawa in O6 to get information regarding the Bildeburg Group. Because he’s an activist and has a radio station and has uncovered many truths from government lies, our border held him up for hours, going through his stuff until they couldn’t find anything to hold him on.

Where is the media on this one? Major injustices are occurring right now here in Canada and the media covers the same news over and over. Peacefull protestors getting arrested for trying to protect OUR WATER while the people responsible for pushing this through have much to answer.

You do not have to look far to find out somthing is wrong. WAKE UP CBC, CTV, TORONTO STAR, etc. This is frustrating, we need your help!

What is it that we’re missing in all of this? There’s something that doesn’t feel right and I know I’m not the only one thinking it.

If there is a possible moritorium in the works then there shouldn’t be any work being done UNTIL it’s decided.
This is getting way out of hand on the side of the Police and Simcoe County and Guergis.
What a defamation of land/water and innocent people just wanting answers.
How could the judge presiding over this continue with allowing the injunction but not the stoppage of work until the 25th?
It’s time we back people who are willing to fight for and with us. It sure as hell isn’t who’s in power now.

Oh this is awful! The trucks need to stop now….who is authorizing the over time for the workers? If wells are running dry, cloudy water is a good indication that the aquifer is in DANGER NOW! There isn’t any time to wait for the 25th it will be done and ready to accept garbage!

THIS CERTAINLY SOUNDS LIKE CRIMINAL BEHAVIOUR TO ME ON THE PART OF SIMCOE COUNTY – TRYING TO FINISH THE DUMP BEFORE THE COURT IMPOSED VOTE ON A MORATORIUM! WHERE ARE OUR OPTIONS? WHERE ARE OUR MPPS? WHERE IS MCGINTY? DO WE NEED STEPHEN HARPER?
