On October 22, Green Party Leader Mike Schreiner presented a significant petition for a referendum to the Ontario Legislature, supported by an impressive 7,676 signatures from residents of Tiny Township. This marks a crucial step in our ongoing efforts to ensure that the voices of Tiny’s residents are heard, particularly regarding local governance and land-use decisions.

The petition calls for local control over critical land-use matters, reflecting widespread concern about the proposed new administrative center plans. These plans have raised alarms for several reasons, including what many view as reckless spending of taxpayer money and a notable lack of democratic input from the community. The financial implications of this project and its environmental impact are significant, with many residents fearing potential harm to the local ecosystem and resources.

The Tiny Township Resident’s Alliance (TinyTRA) unequivocally supports the "Stop the Build" campaign, which seeks to halt the administrative center project until proper consultation and consideration of community input can take place. We believe that all residents deserve a voice in decisions that directly affect their lives and the future of our community.

As we await an official response from the Ontario Legislature by December 11, it is imperative to maintain the momentum of this movement. Here are two ways you can contribute:

- Spread the Word: Share information about the petition and the issues at stake with friends, family, and neighbors. Increased awareness strengthens our cause.

- Stay Informed: Keep an eye on our updates as we organize events and continue to advocate for our community’s rights and well-being.

This is a critical time for Tiny Township, and your support is vital in holding our leaders accountable while protecting our environment and democratic rights. Together, we can ensure that the voices of Tiny’s residents are prioritized in all future decisions.

Thank you for standing with us in this important cause.
