APRIL 24 - Region of Waterloo Council Meeting
We aimed to have several delegations share their stories and advocate for concerned citizens of Wilmot at the recent Region of Waterloo Council meeting. Despite our initial attempt to delegate in advance, our efforts were rebuffed. Nonetheless, a group of 14 of us attended the meeting to demonstrate our concern. Fortunately, student delegates addressing a different issue showed solidarity by advocating for our right to speak, leading to a motion by Mayor Salonen allowing Adam to make a presentation. Adam and Arjo van Bergeijk delivered a sincere presentation during the meeting.
