I am opposed to the merger of the Lakehead Region Conservation Authority with any other conservation authority. It makes no sense! Look at the back side of the Ontario roads map to see where it is. It’s about 700 km. From any other Conservation Authority.

I have some concerns about the amalgamations of the Ontario Conservation Authorities. On the one hand, I believe that streamlining the pass purchases and usage would be a great benefit in terms of governmental efficiency and convenience when travelling. Read more

I live in an amalgamated municipality. I’m sure the argument for putting all of the small communities under one umbrella was similar to the argument for combining all the CA’s into larger groups. In theory it’s a great idea but it doesn’t work in real life the way it works on paper. Read more

I am writing to oppose the amalgamation of conservation authorities. These entities play extremely important roles in our communities, and this amalgamation would negatively affect their functioning. Please keep them as they are, and fund them appropriately.
