By environmental complacency I mean Woolwich Councils' arms length, treat the polluter with kid gloves behaviour and attitudes. I mean appointing various "citizens" committees whose primary characteristics are deference and submission to credentialed suits. Even that twit Todd Cowan after appointing a more vigorous and aggressive group of knowledgeable citizens to CPAC in early 2011 bent over backwards to Uniroyal/Chemtura pressure to have me removed. That wasn't enough for the Chemtura scum who couldn't stand to have me present as a sub-committee (SWAT) assisting CPAC along with Dr. Henry Regier and Rich Clausi. They yelled and screamed in late 2014 and the incoming queen (mayor) got rid of in later 2015 the entire CPAC of highly experienced, knowledgeable and even professionals in the field such as Henry, Ron and Graham. All this was to appease Chemtura who didn't like to have to justify or do more than simply pronounce from on high their inadequate cleanup plans.
The various polluters inadequate cleanup of the Elmira Aquifers is now on record. They have utterly failed after twenty-five years of loud and vigorous claims that all was well and they had the cleanup under control. They lied and they were supported all the way by the Ministry of Environment and by Woolwich Township. I and other citizens have talked to each and every council since then and despite apparently listening they have done little or nothing. They continue to take all words from the MECP and now Lanxess Canada as gospel from proven deceivers. The only way Woolwich Township survive the last thirty-six years of selling out to a world class polluter is with the eyes closed, ears covered behaviour of local citizens. That is also truly disgraceful.
