With so many of you running for Grey Highlands council, the choice is made a bit difficult. Just the same, we commend you for making the effort.

However, the one item that interests my wife & I is whether you are for or against bringing natural gas to parts of our township.

I voted against the creation of a Natural Gas (NG) Task Force at Grey Highlands, but unfortunately the vote carried 4 to 3. I believe that we need to keep carbon in the ground, and cannot afford any more related emissions. I believe we are in a climate emergency and we should act like it.

Now, and at the risk of sounding too much like a "politician", :-) I am watching how Green Hydrogen can use existing NG infrastructure with little investment; however, this has not changed my stance on adding any more NG infrastructure in Grey Highlands.

See all the questions I have been asked throughout the 2022 Campaign!
