Ancient deposits under the Simcoe Uplands in Ontario’s Tiny, Springwater, Oro-Medonte and Tay townships contain pristine groundwater; First Nations have long used this water in what is now the territory of Beausoleil First Nation of the Ogemawahj Tribal Council and Williams Treaties First Nations.
Simcoe and the thousands of people who enjoy this pure water are asking for help in preventing the contamination of what has been proven to be the ‘cleanest water known in the world and “cleaner than Arctic Ice”. Many of you will remember how we fought the County and won against dump site 41 being constructed over these waters. Â
Now we are facing the expansion and/or washing of gravel & further excavation by Dufferin Construction & The Sargeant Co. going below the water table & threatening the purity of this water.
Many of us are enjoying that water from the kiosk just outside of Elmvale, north on Hwy. 27. Several of our residents/farmers wells are dependent on that water & some are already being affected.
