    SAVE THE WATER: FIGHT THE DUMP
    1:00 PM to 5:00 PM STOP Simco County from building a dump site on top of the pristine Alliston aquifer - forever destroying some of the purest water in the world (it's been compared to "the cleanest layers of ancient arctic ice)". For 15 years, community members have fought tirelessly against the Site 41 project - but it is scheduled to open this fall. Construction or 'de-watering' of the site HAS BEGUN. Say NO to the destruction of a pristine water source in our own backyard. On July 4 join the Council of Canadians, community members, and the Peaceful Aboriginal Womens Protest to send a message to officials who have the power to halt the construction. FREE BUS TRANSPORTATION (return trip) will be provided from Toronto on Saturday. Stay tuned for details. BRING lawn chairs and a picnic! If you wish to camp on Friday night, please contact the organizers. SIGN THE PETITION at www.thepetitionsite.com/1/stop-dump-site-41 Support the Council of Canadians bid to oppose the county's plan in the courts - donate on line at www.canadians.org and for more info http://www.canadians.org/media/water/2009/11-June-09.html Location:   FREE BUS TRANSPORTATION FROM TORONTO, or about a half hour drive north of Barrie in on Concession Rd. 2 between Baseline Rd and Highway 6, just west of Waverley just north of Elmvale and just south of, Tiny Township, Region: Halton, Hamilton, Niagara   Sponsor: Council of Canadians,    Contact Info: mcalzavara@candians.org    1.800.208.7156   http://www.stopdumpsite41.ca/
