Gateman-Milloy, the developer of the land next to the Huron Natural Area, is clearcutting trees.

Anyone seeing the devastation will understand that the birds and animals within Huron Natural Area itself will be affected, since their habitat has been further reduced, and many of them will have been nesting or hibernating in the area that has now been demolished.

Many trees, trails and wetlands that you may think of as the Huron Natural Area are owned by another private company, Activa. We are still fighting to ensure that Gateman-Milloy follows through on the few environmental protections they are required to fulfil and that the other land that the City sold off remains untouched.

The rally is on Sunday, March 29th at 1pm at the entrance to the Huron Natural Area. Come out to hear updates from the advocacy group, demand protections for the birds and animals, and see the destruction firsthand.

Thank you to the community member who took this footage a few days ago and shared it with our team.

Show up, spread the word, and tag your local media below to tell them you care about this.

COMMUNITY CALL TO ACTION:
Ever since the City of Kitchener approved the development surrounding Huron Natural Area, our team has been working behind the scenes to challenge their decision.

On the first day of Spring, as some wildlife are still hibernating and some are having Spring babies, trees are being cut down and hauled away right before our eyes.

Come rally at HNA and see the development firsthand to let the City and the Developer know that we are still watching and still fighting. We cannot allow our city councillors to rely on misinformation, ignore Indigenous experts and permit habitat destruction.

More information and our speakers list is to come.

Show up Sunday, March 29th at 1pm.

Spread the word.
