I am SO grateful for the Dawn-Euphemia Council to pass a motion to request the Environmental Assessment be required before York 1 can continue in their pursuit of the waste disposal site minutes from Dresden. Read more

Good day, I strongly oppose the proposed Dresden landfill expansion and the Ford government’s attempt to bypass Ontario’s Environmental Assessment process. This project is a direct threat to the health, safety, and economic future of Dresden and all of Chatham-Kent. Read more

NO TO A DUMP IN DRESDEN THERE IS A PUBLIC SCHOOL AND A HIGH SCHOOL IN TOWN. THE LOCATION IS TOO CLOSE TO MOLLY'S CREEK. HOW ARE PEOPLE GOING TO TRAVEL ON THE ROADS IN THE AREA IF THEY ARE ALL RIPPED UP? Read more

I oppose this request to cancel the full Environment Assessment. Our farmland, waterways and air quality are far more important to protect than creating an easy out for a landfill that does not seem to care about the neighbouring community. This development is FAR TOO CLOSE to our town limits. Read more

How can you sleep at night when you are removing the Environmental Assessment on a huge NEW landfill in Dresden, it is literally across the road from the edge of town, the width of a two lane road is all that separates the town from the proposed landfill property. Read more

We don’t want this dump facility in Dresden. There is already a landfill in our county, we don’t need or want another one. You did not do proper consultation with local First Nations, which you are required to do. This dump is a terrible idea! Read more

Location a landfill site 800 metres from any town makes no sense. The proposed Dresden landfill without a full EA fails to protect not only the town, but also the surrounding area and the municipality. Read more

I am vehemently opposed to this landfill going forward without the proper environmental studies being done first. This could have grave impacts on the environment and namely on the Sydenham River and its ecology for years to come. Read more

In my opinion, removing the requirement for a full environmental assessment is detrimental to the people of the town Dresden. The road infrastructure is not made to handle the constant truck traffic. Read more

I’m writing to strongly oppose the proposed landfill near Dresden, Ontario. As highlighted by Environmental Defence, this project threatens sensitive ecosystems, species at risk, and clean water — all for the convenience of expanding waste disposal in the province. Read more

This dump is 500m from homes, 800m from a school, beside a creek, and on a former bomb range. Dresden was promised a full environmental assessment. Scrapping it now is dangerous, dishonest, and unacceptable. Do your job. Reinstate the EA. Read more
