Re: Conservation key to stopping gas plant: former Greenpeace head. This was a very interesting meeting with a great presentation from New Democratic Party Energy Critic Peter Tabuns.

After listening to this presentation, it became obvious to all we must stand united in order to prevent the gas plants from thriving in Mississauga. Ratepayers associations, tenants associations and political party riding associations, must unite in order to win this battle.

But, that’s not enoug.! We need every citizen to join in and let our elected politicians at all levels know we do not want gas plants in Mississauga.

We will take the necessary action at election time in order to elect political leaders at all levels who share our concerns.

We want politicians who will do more than speak in opposition to gas plants. We want more of our politicians than to sign petitions. We want politicians to stand up and take action. We want our politicians to take a look around the world and bring the best ideas back to Mississauga.

I respectfully caution those desirous of election or re-election that the energy is mounting. The energy to stop power plants in Mississauga South is becoming contagious. People are talking. All of us standing together can “make things happen” Let’s stand together!
