Maybe they should wait to see what they’ll find at the old mill site. Just saying….

Who makes these decisions? Shouldn’t the public be informed beforehand? We really can’t risk contaminating our water!…….1 kilometer from the Sturgeon River is too close for comfort!

@ Eric L. I can tell you're a keyboard warrior swearing at people and making accusations online. You sound like a little bich that lives in your Mom's basement. If you don't know what you're talking about, go back to playing your video games.

What Brenda said was flat out racist towards the indigenous people… defend the racist though it looks good on you buddy. Lol

And another thing Colon, Brenda seems okay with this hazardous material going to other local reserves who are just as close or closer to the same bodies of water that you’re all so concerned about, but yet I’m the one who doesn’t know what they’re talking about. Go suck a tailpipe goof.

Now now Little Eric, you don't need to get so upset. Isn't time for you to bang on the ceiling yelling, "Mom...where's my meatloaf?"

Upset?! Please, don’t give yourself too much credit. If only you knew how excited I get when people like you engage with me. This is fun to me, but the fact still remains that Brenda is a stupid racist and all I did was call her out on it. And now, for whatever reason, you’ve decided to defend her honor… but let me be clear Colon, I got all the time in the world to go back and forth with you if that’s what you want to do. Lol

I’d like to know just how close our dump is to the Sturgeon River or Lake Nipissing? Has anyone with half a brain on council ever considered the possibility of 8000 tones of this shit leaching into the ground water and therefore making its way into the towns drinking water or Lake Nipissing? It seems this council will do just about anything for a buck and without consequence and I’m so disgusted.

You might also look into the main signatures on this deal as you might find those on it have filled pockets and already left walking soon running I imagine.

This just solidified our stand on the current incompetence. As a survivor of one Incompetent group in Walkerton Ontario watching my community children die I can tell you this West Nipissing resident does not give my voice or my confidence in any way to this council and it's incompetence for they simply rule as mandates dictate and make no decisions of their own. Like Frank and Stan your incompetence has been proven and you are now considered terminated from acting on our behalf. Please remove your fingers from my pocket on your way out. You think I'm a problem now? Wait until I find out you killed their children. I'll come back.

"The decision to transport approximately 8,000 metric tonnes of contaminated soil from Serpent River First Nation (SRFN) to the Sturgeon Falls landfill in West Nipissing is sparking concerns over environmental and public health risks."

Why not send it to Jocko Point or Garden Village? Why here? Will the town give us back taxes for that crap to be here? There are many reservations around here, so why not from one reservation to another? Will the government send money here for compensation? What a rip!

Brenda, now you’re just being a racist… while I’m indifferent about this deal as I’m not informed enough to make an opinion on it, I’m intelligent enough to know that you need to shut the fuck up.

You again? I thought I was done with you. This goes against my MO to go back and forth via commenting, but you make it too easy. It's entertaining reading your comments as you lose your composure. Now Little Eric, unlike yourself I have a job that I must focus on. That said, go eat your Mom's meatloaf before it gets cold.
