When #municipalities are updating #officialplans a higher emphasis should be given to #agricultural #businesses where the need exists for #bunkhouses for #seasonalworkers outside of #specialtycropareas @KingTownship

Approval of the proposed long-term care center at Mary Lake will be decided by King City Committee of Adjustment on April 19th. Against the planning report submitted by AFOI., we believe this proposal fails to conform with the ORM Conservation Plan. #yorkregion #kingcity

Vaughan residents Marcella and Sara joined thousands of like minded people at QPark opposing attacks on our environment, greenbelt and construction of hwy 413 the most environmentally destructive hwy of our times @envirodefence @GreenbeltAllies @STOPthe413NOW

Please do the assessment @JustinTrudeau @cafreeland ! The proposed highway shoved thru with no assessment is highly incompatible with #climatecrisis carbon emission reduction goals! @ExtinctionR @lakesimcoewatch @TorontoStar
A federal assessment would be the only chance to look at alternatives to building another highway through farmlands, forests and wetlands.

This is a good read. I’ve been part of both med systems as HCP and pt. Net effect would be similar but I never saw underfunding there to the extent it is here. Affects all aspects of care and training IMHO. COVID has made differences clearer-we had no margin of safety.

Important article well worth reading, nothing happens on this earth in isolation.
A new study from @natureunited_ca has made it abundantly clear that in the world’s fight against global warming, the natural world is going to be one of our most important allies.

Here's why we, with @ecojustice_ca, @RescueLakeSimc1 & @SCGreenbelt asked the federal government to stop Ontario from fast-tracking two environmentally destructive highways - Highway 413 & the Holland Marsh Highway #Stopthe413 #onpoli #cdnpoli environmentaldefence.ca/2021…

Farmland + river valleys are not “empty” space to place large highways on @C_Mulroney @fordnation #goodthingsgrowinontario #FarmersFeedUs
The underused Highway 407 can accommodate truck traffic alleviating the need for the environmentally destructive and wasteful new Highway 413. thestar.com/business/2020/12…
