Imposing Injunctions


Good afternoon everyone,

As most of you know by now, we got the moratorium for 1 year.

At this time, I have to thank my lawyers, Chris Reid and Peter Rosenthal who represented me in my case to oppose the injunction. At that time, we were able to come to a resolution and agree to an adjournment on the understanding that these issues would be on the County Council Agenda, 1) The Moratorium 2) The Injuction/Lawsuit (Against me and Anne Ritchie Nahuis and 3) The IPC Inquiry to the Calibrated Modflow

The results of this effort are (as well as the efforts of the Outreach teams, the letter campaigns, and hundreds of individuals who worked hard to ensure the vote passed);

1) Council voted in favor of the moratorium for 1 year. 22/10
2) The Injunction stays in place, the lawsuit has been dropped.
3) County Council voted to have a judicial review of the IPC Order requiring the County to do everything in its power to compel Jagger Himms to release the model, this included legal action.

Also, a quick note, On September 5th, 2009 we will be having a Legal Defense Fundraiser at Yorkies in Penetanguishene. We will be having a silent auction on that day starting at 11 pm. Donations for prizes would be greatly appreciated and can be dropped off at the Protest Camp or at Yorkies c/o Cindy York, Owner. (More details to follow)

59 Main Street, Penetanguishene, ON L9M 1S8
Telephone : 705-549-0648

As you can see, we have two major victories resulting from the Council meeting on the 25th. The dropping of the lawsuit against me and Anne and the Moratorium. Everyone is welcome to attend the Moratorium Celebration Potluck on Saturday at 5 pm at the Protest Camp.

A big miigwetch to the thousands of support of the Stop Dump Site 41 campaign. Please be sure and visit our website at www.stopdumpsite41.ca
