Suggestions:
1) Do not send attachments, with virus scares, cut and paste
is a safer method.
2) Provide name, phone number, and the city you live in.
If possible, read the web site, government
and parks sites, visit Cathedral Grove, speak about the issues
with Mr. Zinovich then write a succinct factual letter to him
and especially the new Minister, the honourable Bill Barisoff.
Let them know how you feel about public involvement, the existing
park and the proposals that they have set forth. Let them know
whether Cathedral Grove (MacMillan Park) should be expanded
or not. Let them know if you think it is urgent to stop the
existing plan. Bill Barisoffs 1-800-663-7867 ask for 387-1187.
Regardless of your writing skills, please write
a short letter to the various papers below, letting the paper
know if Cathedral Grove and the present parks plan is acceptable
to you. Please coppy letters to us at:: syd@cathedralgrove.com;
