This afternoon, in my capacity as @OntLiberal critic for Rural & Agricultural Affairs, I sent a letter to the Integrity Commissioner requesting an investigation into the connections with the Premier, Ministers, and developers with the Dresden landfill.
My letter in full 👇#onpoli
85 environmental, water advocacy, and Indigenous groups are urging all federal parties to commit to protecting freshwater in Canada. With growing threats from the U.S. and weakened protections at home, it’s time to strengthen laws, uphold agreements, and respect Indigenous water rights.

The Ford government is backtracking on its promise to require an environmental assessment for the proposed Dresden Dump.

Happy Earth Day!
Things you can do to support Earth Day (and should be doing regularly):
- Reduce waste (Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle)
- Volunteer to clean-up litter
- Cut down on Single-Use Plastics
- Conserve water and energy
- Walk, bike, or use public transit
- Plant a tree
Waiting for the Premier of Ontario. He was a no show. The Dresden C.A.R.E.D. team wanted to invite Doug Ford to drive 10 minutes to see how close the proposed dump will be from our town.
@fordnation@PBethlenfalvy How can u justify a York 1 landfill that will discharge wastewater into a river that farmers use to water crops. Good bye food supply.
Black History Month sees premier Ford & York1 announce the destruction of Dresden Ontario; Home of Uncle Tom's Cabin. A landfill , soil remediation & transfer station for GTA waste proposed for 1k from town, & the discharge water into St Clair conservation / Sydenham River.
conservatives promise more $$ to RESP in 3 yrs from today's empty coffers & 0 plan to make $$. Liberals loose investors & govt $$ on roll out of Legal weed! Ont. floods & both liberals & conservatives silent on LT plan! Vote Green !
@CBCNews re fair air time; clerk of privy council testified to pmo's control over media. Decades of ignoring Greens, & now you want us to believe you r not part of problem?!
Even if the world reduces its carbon emissions to zero by 2050, there will still need to be negative global carbon emissions
Reforestation is essential for creating negative emissions – not reducing the amount of carbon that humans are still emitting. https://t.co/FdKpcUMgPs
