Reader Responds to BWDSB Wifi Testing

Wednesday, 01 September 2010 07:29 Letter to the Editor Letters

Your article, "Bluewater Tests Wi-fi Exposure" (web-posted Tuesday, 31 August 2010 10:14), even with its responsible intent, unfortunately reports irrelevancy directly and indirectly.

What is directly relevant is demonstrable biological effect, both from direct experience and scientific observation. Health Canada's so-called Safety Code 6 is precisely at the centre of the controversy. Their acquiescence in lopping off of dissenting science, which would corroborate the effects experienced by some local children, renders appeal to them directly irrelevant.

The Employers Are Not Happy

Dear Editor,

This letter was originally given to the offices of, what I mistakenly assumed was, our local paper. May I take this opportunity to thank the backers of this ‘Independent newspaper’ for providing a venue for the views and opinions of the members of this Municipality.

Silent Majority Needs to Get Vocal

Monday, 30 August 2010 15:23 Letter to the Editor Letters

Editor,

So now we have a new project underway now, re-branding Meaford. I have several comments to make:

1/ Why? There's nothing wrong with our current logo that a little updating wouldn't fix.

2/ Why bother? The CAO and council don't listen to our input anyway. These days it seems that everything is pre-decided, then put before the public, the public input is ignored, and away we go with more changes that the majority don't want. Then they wonder why we are so apathetic that we don't have people running for council or volunteering.

Reader Hopes Residents Will Speak Out About Municipal Branding

Wednesday, 25 August 2010 16:20 Letter to the Editor Letters

Editor,

I only hope the People of the rural area in the Municipality make their voices heard regarding the new logo being proposed for this Municipality.

I think it was a waste of taxpayers money to hire a consultant to look at changing the Logo we already have. What is wrong with what we have now? We were named 'The Apple Capital of Ontario'.

How any one can say they got the feeling of the Municipality by walking on the sidewalk of Meaford, as reported in the local paper, I don't understand as Meaford is only one third of this Municipality.

I think the one we have now covers the entire Municipality, as the rural area is not Meaford, but part of the Municipality of Meaford.
