Kristen Villebrun and Wendy Bush hoped they wouldn't have to pray for Chedoke Creek, but four years after they first raised alarm about the water's condition, they were part of an Indigenous full moon ceremony to do just that. About 50 people showed up near Princess Point on the dark and frigid Monday evening for the monthly ceremony, which was particularly special as it focused on Chedoke Creek. The body of water that runs into Cootes Paradise had about 24 billion litres of sewage and storm water runoff leak into it due to a gate being left open.
Village Chief Administrative Officer
Clive village council set the date for a town hall type meeting to offer information to the public about the municipality’s membership in a major water commission. The decision was made at the Aug. 16 regular meeting of council. Village Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) Carla Kenney presented councillors with a memo requesting they pick a date for the public information session for the Hwy. #12/21 Water Commission town hall meeting.
