Site 41 victory celebration July 24, 4pm
We hope you can attend a Site 41 victory celebration in Perkinsfield. All our Site 41 friends have been invited- most everyone who ever helped us should be there.
The Site 41 group, First Nations, non-natives,organizations and individuals succeeded stopping the construction of a landfill at Site 41. Clearly we won- on the land, in the courts and in the corridors of power.
And one of the best things is that we have become friends, part of a big family, the Site 41 family.
Hope to see you.

Final push for Bill 32
Based on feedback from MPPs, we are focusing our Bill 32 campaign on the Premier.
Prorogation is set for Thursday and unless Bill 32 is included in the list of bills to go forward into the new session, it is finished. So we’ve set up a NEW sample letter putting our case to Dalton McGuinty alone. It’s important that he hear the message from far and wide in the province, so get your friends and family involved.

Sign the Petition to drop criminal charges against Site 41 protesters!
Last summer, 17 concerned citizens faced criminal charges for engaging in peaceful civil disobedience in the successful campaign to stop landfill development at Site 41.
Although there has been a victory and development has been halted, these brave Ontarians still face criminal charges. You can help!
