BIOGAS OPPONENTS DO GOOD WORK

"The Elmira Bio Fuel Citizens' Committee has been holding weekly strategy meetings at the Woolwich Memorial centre. On Wednesday night, more than 80 people showed up to hear Bio-En Power Inc. president Chuck Martin's take on the proposal." This quote is from today's Woolwich Observer, written by Katie Edmonds. In my opinion both Chuck Martin in favour and the opposition have done themselves proud. Maintaining the time and energy for weekly meetings is indeed what citizen activism is all about. The only question I have concerning the article is the reference to a suggestion that a truck bypass route be created around downtown Elmira. I was of the understanding that that was the reason for the extension of Union St. right down to the south end of Elmira & the #86 or Listowel bypass as I call it.
