  • Water Walk - Sep. 2-11, 2015

    water-walk-150x148 

    One of the key people in the successful fight to stop the Mega Quarry was Danny Beaton. In the spring of 2011, he led a group of First Nations, farmers, environmentalists and others on a walk from the lawns of Queen's Park to the potato fields of Melancthon in order to highlight the threat the quarry posed to food and water.

     

    Danny is about to walk again, and Food & Water First's Carl Cosack will be joining him. You can, too! Starting September 2nd, Danny and supporters will spend nine days walking the shores of Lake Simcoe. The goal of Waterwalk 2015 is to remind us all of the need to protect the water that sustains us.
