Ontario Tribunal was supposed to take place this week regarding the Hallman Quarry Pit, a proposal rejected by all of Wilmot council. Residents were blindsided by a last minute “settlement” and they held an emergency meeting for proposed gravel pit. kitchener.ctvnews.ca/wilmot-residen…
The meeting to stop the Hallman Pit was filled to capacity. @saveourwater & concerned citizens believe the municipality was impacted by #bill23 which would allow developers to claim costs if the Tribunal ruled in their favour. 
Landowners "stockpile" gravel-extraction approvals. And, once an approval (i.e. aggregate-extraction permit under the Aggregate Resources Act) is given the landowner can sell the land as both farmland and as a gravel pit. It is a Ponzi scheme. reformgravelmining.ca/petition
