I oppose this action. It is not justified to take millions of liters of drinking water to clean gravel for industrial purposes. The ministry of the Environment and Climate Change should be thinking of how this decision will affect seven generations to come. If passed, the decision will set a precedent that development is more important than conserving clean drinking water. At this time we do not understand how this decision will affect the water source in 10 years. There has been no consultation with Anishinaabe or Haudenosaunee peoples, whos traditional territory the well and pond are on. It is the crown responsibility to consult Indigenous peoples on decisions like these ones. If this decision is passed, I guarantee water protectors from across North America will make their way to the area of question and stop this action. [Original Comment ID: 212360]
