Free Public Forum
Pollution Vs. Human Rights

Aamjiwnaang First Nations and Ecojustice allege the Ontario Ministry of the Environment's ongoing approval of pollution in Sarnia’s Chemical Valley is a violation of Canadian Human Rights. A lawsuit has been launched which asks for no compensation, only for the province to change current emissions standards. 
The plight of the Aamjiwnaang people first came to light after finding that only a third of the babies born between 1999 and 2005 were male. The ratio is normally closer to 50:50. Learn the details of the alarming impacts of pollution on community and environment in this landmark case, and how you can help.

Date: Wed. April 6 2011, starting at 7pm
Location: First United Church, 16 William Street West, Waterloo Ontario
Free, but donations welcomed.

Speakers include: 

Ron Plain & Ada Lockridge, Aamjiwnaang residents
Justin Duncan EcoJustice lawyer
Dayna Nadine Scott, Co-director of the National Network on Environments and Women's Health
John Jackson, Spokesperson of the Grand River Environmental Network (GREN) 

This event is sponsored by the Grand River Environmental Network and First United Church Outreach Committee of Waterloo.
