ADVOCATE READERS, YOU ARE READING HONEST, EXPERT INFO TOTALLY IGNORED/MISSED BY WATERLOO REGION MEDIA

Today's post continues on with facts and information presented at public TAG (& RAC) meetings during Dr. Richard Jackson's tenure as TAG Chair (Sept. 2015-December 2016). It was mostly missed by Waterloo Region media including radio, television and two newspapers because none of them could be bothered attending the public meetings held in Woolwich Council Chambers. Yes during this time there was media coverage of other travails that Woolwich Council were going through such as their asinine attempts to deny Delegations to Council in regards to Chemtura (Uniroyal) in Elmira. I will again list a number of dates and titles in this Blog (Elmira Advocate) that were the result of my in person attendance at these public meetings, taking notes and usually posting here the next morning. All of these posted articles can be accessed from the Blog Archive on the bottom right corner of the Elmira Advocate. A few of these dates and titles will also include specific comments/criticisms of the Elmira "cleanup" and those in charge over the past decades from Dr. Jackson. Today I have only reexamined past posts from January 2016 through April 2016. .............................................................................................................................. Friday January 15, 2016: titled "Wednesday Evening's TAG meeting". Friday February 12, 2016 titled "Last Night's TAG Meeting Was Illuminating". Friday March 16, 2016 titled "Ontario MOECC Show Their Contempt For Citizens Again". Friday April 29 titled "Monday Nights RAC And TAG Reports". These reports were given to Woolwich Council at a public council meeting as updates and were contentious. Wednesday April 20, 2016 titled "More Music To My Ears At Woolwich Council". While this post was in regards to the previous evening's public council meeting dealing with the Hawk Ridge Homes proposed development, what was of great interest to me was the blatant and disgusting display of hypocrisy put on by Susan Bryant and Pat McLean. These two self-serving (co-opted?) individuals spoke at length criticisng both Chemtura and predecessors as well as hammering the Ontario Ministry of Environment's lack of environmental enforcement and hence how at risk the new residents will be in the Hawk Ridge development across the road from Chemtura Canada in Elmira. Of course these same two liars said no such things a year earlier in the private "Stakeholders" meeting where they crapped on CPAC (Dr. Holt & members) plus myself in order to get Woolwich Council to remove CPAC. Maybe this was because at that time Chemtura, the MOE and Pat and Susan's goals were aligned (i.e. get rid of me and CPAC). ........................................................................................................................................ Friday April 15, 2016 titled "Council & TAG Hypocrites Crying Foul - M.O.E. Repeatedly Portrayed As Liars". I love that previous evening's TAG meeting. Dr. Jackson unequivocally stated that there were DNAPLS (dense non aqueous phase liquids) on the eastern property line of Uniroyal/Chemtura as proven by the groundwater concentrations of various DNAPL chemicals. Pat Mclean also was whining and crying about the M.O.E.'s bad and disrespectful attitude towards TAG including private meetings between the M.O.E. and Chemtura, excluding TAG from attending. Dr. Richard (Dick) Jackson also suggested that Hatfield Consultants should and could do an excellent Dioxin Risk Assessment in the Canagagigue Creek. The M.O.E. or Conestoga Rovers (implied) not so much. ........................................................................................................................ And this folks is how polluters with political support and media laxness get away with murder, whether of the truth or of people's lives.
