Remember Walkerton? I do…

Remember Walkerton? I do. While I didn’t live in Walkerton, I cannot imagine not being able to have safe, drinking water due to negligence in pursuit of profit. Would you drink water that isn’t safe to drink? Of course not. Neither would I.

The Greenbelt and Great Lake Protection Act is vital for our economy. It is important because, we live in our environment. We need the trees to breathe Co2 emissions. You want to open doors for business, look at the green technology sector or areas where the pursuit of profit is not at the expense of our environment.

Corporations are obligated to pursue profit –I do take issue with this but, that is for another discussion—it is up to government as well as its citizens to come together and enact policies that hold corporations accountable.

Accountability is key on all levels, government, society and corporations. Your policies Mr. Ford are detrimental to the well-being of Ontarians and Canadians as well.

We can do great things, however, sadly, as I write this, I believe that my efforts will fall on deaf ears and be labelled as (fill in the blank here). Change the way you think! We’re heading to 2019 very soon. Your ideas and policies Mr. Ford reek of a raging middle-age-white-man who wants to live the “glory days” of the 1950s! Bleh. Oh wait…le sigh.
