Stop Sprawl!

Let Burlington’s Mayor and Councillors know that you want them to protect the natural spaces, farmland and precious water sources that we all depend on. They need to hear from you TODAY!

Ontario Nature: Across the Greater Golden Horseshoe developers and land speculators are lobbying local governments to allow sprawl-style development on precious natural areas and farmland. They’re using COVID-19 as a smokescreen saying these developments are necessary to get us through the crisis. We need to stop this assault on our natural heritage.

Please contact the Mayor and your Councillor today, sign the petition below and here is a handy Anti-Sprawl toolkit prepared by our friends at GASP, where you can learn more about speaking up for this very important issue.

We respectfully acknowledge that our work with the community takes place on traditional Indigenous territories, of the Haudenosaunee, Anishinaabe, Six Nations of the Grand River and the Mississauga’s of the Credit, First Nation. This territory is part of the Dish with One Spoon Treaty, an agreement between the Anishinaabe, Haudenosaunee and allied nations to peaceably share and care for the resources around the Great Lakes.

We honour all the First Nation, Métis and Inuit people who have been living on the land since time immemorial and we recognize their leadership in caring for and sustaining Mother Earth. We respect the four directions, land, waters, plants, animals, and all the wonderful elements of creation that exist.

Stop Sprawl!
