I live along the banks of…

I live along the banks of the east branch of the Sydenham River. I know about its biodiversity, it’s rare and endangered species and the ecological value it has in this Carolinian Zone. This proposed dump site WILL have a devastating impact to this river. The government seems to care less and less about the environment. Follow the money. As bad as this proposed dump site is ecologically, it’s a nightmare for the Dresden residents and the entire local area that would be impacted by everything from road damage, noise pollution, and odours, to reduced property value and worst of all, major life-threatening health issues. It is insanity to even consider developing such a dump site just one kilometre from the town. The sneaky property purchases, the rose-coloured-glasses description of what will transpire on the site, the misuse of an old pre designation of a dump, all smell bad. We are NOT stupid. We will NOT be intimidated. We will NOT stop fighting against this disaster waiting to happen. God is on our side.
