THE CPAC 2012 RESOLUTION IN A HOLDING PATTERN

This is neither unexpected nor a problem. This Resolution after being endorsed and adopted by Woolwich Council was sent out to the AMO (Assoc'n of Municipalities of Ontario) as well as to the Region of Waterloo and the Province of Ontario including the Ministry of the Environment (M.O.E.). It was politely and diplomatically written but nevertheless can hardly be interpreted as anything but earthshattering. Yes it asks for money including a trust fund (financial assurance) which are the usual requests from a lower tier government to a higher tier one. Most importantly it advises all parties that the status quo in Elmira will not sucessfully restore the drinking water aquifers by 2028 or even close. This is of course in direct conflict and dispute with Chemtura, their consultants (CRA) and the M.O.E..

It would be hard to interpret this CPAC Resolution as anything other than a condemnation of the pump and treat "cleanup" as well as all parties and authorities who have acquiesced to it. These parties directly or indirectly cut deals, including sweetheart deals with one of the major polluters of the Elmira drinking water aquifers. These parties are now under pressure, which will only increase, to come clean and tell the citizens of Elmira and indeed Ontario the entire truth. This will not be easy or particularily palatable but continued disinformation and falsehoods are no longer an option. The young CPAC and the new Woolwich Council are well informed and resolute. The truth at long last is coming out.
