NOW THIS IS JUST PLAIN WRONG!

Again in last Wednesday's Elmira Independent there was a story titled "Local company launches Greenest School Contest". Now I know that companys like Ciba-Geigy (Novartis) and others with rock solid polluter credentials sponser things like groundwater festivals etc. but two wrongs don't make a right. Capitol Paving (think gravel pit beside the West Montrose Covered bridge) are promoting and sponsering this contest. This is greenwashing at it's most blatant and is using chidren to improve their corporate image. Shame on Capitol Paving and just as much shame on the Waterloo Region District School Board. For a paltry $6,000 bribe to the school you have sold out. SHAME!
