Good afternoon,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Amazing news just breaking from Queen’s Park where
Minister Steve Clark has announced that the government has heard
the concerns about Schedule 10 of Bill 66 and that they will be
revoking that section as we have been requesting!!!</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Congratulations to everyone who spoke up, wrote
letters, sent e-mails and ensured that our serious concerns
about Bill 66 were heard! </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">We still don’t know much of the details aside from
the tweets on Twitter (copy below) but there have been thousands
of retweets within minutes. We are in the process of preparing
a press release for our local media and we’ll keep you posted as
we learn more. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">There are still many concerning things happening be
it changes to the Growth Plan, Climate Change, the Endangered
Species Act, Regional Review/amalgamation, etc. so we will still
need to remain vigilant and active working to ensure our strong
local protections, water, farmland, natural areas and natural
resources aren’t threatened.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">We still encourage people to keep meetings with
MPP’s and other officials. We will still be proceeding with the
Our Water, Our Future event on February 7th too.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Thank you to everyone for so much hard work. Our
local and regional councils with their strong Staff Reports and
Resolutions against Bill 66 helped to lead things and set the
tone provincially. We’ve achieved what many said was impossible
and got the Ford government to backtrack again from their awful
plan to override and imperil so much.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Congratulations!</div>
<div class="">Kevin.</div>
