I am part of the longwoods…

I am part of the longwoods avisory board and have been for a good number of years. We are part of the LTVCA. I have bee to the AGM for as many years as I can remember. I find that the LTVCA does an excellent job and is very connected at the grass roots level with all the communities. I feel the combination of seven authorities will water this down and loose that connection at the local level. I feel this would be a mistake to combine them all together. I have been a resident of Mount Brydges since 1954 and have very much noticed that Mount Brydges has almost vanished and over shadowed by Strathroy since it combined with Strathroy as Strathroy Caradoc many years ago. This to may would be vary similar. Issues unique to us and the communities we work for could be lost.
