[KWPeace-groups] Resistance to Bill 66 Community Group Meeting, THURSDAY, 3 JANUARY 2019 at CIGI

[Bob Jonkman]

Hi KWPeace Organizers and Group Leaders:  My apologies for not 
contacting you about the local Waterloo Region resistance to Bill 66 
movement earlier.

As you may know, the Ontario Government has introduced Bill 66, the 
"Open For Business Act", to cut the red tape required to develop 
Ontario's Green Belt, morraines, and farmland, without maintaining 
protections for drinking water or our food supply.

You can read more at http://stopbill66.ca and send a letter to all our 
local politicians at https://act.holdthelinewr.org/

Some of you may already have attended the first meeting held on 18 
December 2018. The second meeting of people and groups opposed to Bill 
66 is this Thursday, 3 January 2019, again in Room A-142 of the CIGI 
building.


Kevin Thomason sent an e-mail to the previous meeting's participants, 
which you can read at:

Kevin provided some images for use on social media:

Most importantly, there's a draft Citizens Toolkit for Bill 66 with 
guidelines for people to use when contacting their elected 
representatives at all levels of government:
