We live in Wellington County…

We live in Wellington County, in Elora. We have no sidewalks around our schools. We have no grocery store. There is not enough space in our elementary school for students - most of the south side has to be bussed out of town to attend school. There is almost no recreation for seniors here. You have to drive to do almost everything. We have a lot of things to fix in this area before we add thousands more people to the mix. There is zero appetite here for more shoddily-built, ugly townhomes. Without farmland and farmers, you are sentencing our kids to a future of food shortages, and sky high grocery bills. The vast majority of this province is not farmable - build your townhomes there. Not everything has to be within driving distance of Toronto. This isn’t the 1970s were people had to meet in person or courier something across town. Grow communities in areas where there are not enough kids to keep schools open. Build where the land cannot be farmed.
