With a continued focus on dealing with climate change in our community, waste management is a big part of the battle.
As a member of the Waste Management Site Advisory committee at Halton Region, I have been working with Milton and Halton residents on promoting waste diversion options to help reduce what is sent to our landfill site and increase the lifespan of the facility. From increased options for recycling and improvements to our Blue Box collection to highlighting the benefits of the Green Cart program, together we have been able to extend the life of the Halton Waste Management site to 2040.
COVID-19 has altered our lifestyles quite a bit over the last 20 months and that includes how much waste is being sent to the landfill and we need to ensure we are doing everything to improve our customer service at the WMS along with new and innovative ways to divert waste and improve our local environment. We need your input!
Halton Region is currently reviewing and getting public feedback on the next steps in our waste management strategy and we would like to hear from you. From the Halton Region Website – “Reducing community waste and protecting the natural environment have always been top priorities for Halton Region and the community. As the region grows and the community changes, our proposed Solid Waste Management Strategy(PDF file) includes medium and long-term initiatives to help increase waste diversion, extend the life of our landfill and lower carbon emissions.“
Follow the link to provide your input on Halton’s waste management future. Deadline is December 10th, 2021.
Together with Laurie Hepburn from Halton Women’s Place, I am joined with Milton Mayor Gord Krantz as we read the proclamation declaring November to be Women’s Abuse Prevention Month in Milton.
Violence against women continues to be a problem in our community with proof that both locations of HWP (Burlington and Milton) are exceeding capacity regularly. As we have been dealing with COVID-19 for almost 2 years, it has further increased the demand for the services HWP and other agencies in our community provide. It begins with education and continues with advocacy at all levels to government to help eliminate this problem. I am proud that over the last several years I have organized the Hope In High Heels walk fundraiser in Milton to help raise the much needed funds to keep the shelter open and give those in need help to get back on their feet.
By declaring the month of November as Womens Abuse Prevention Month, we hope to raise awareness in our community that this is a problem and needs to be solved.

We are all part of the solution. Lets all work together to end violence against women in Halton.
A heartwarming candlelight ceremony was held this evening by Townsend Smith Foundation at the Italian Cultural Centre of Milton
There were readings and songs throughout the evening as we remember loved ones that are no longer with us and hope for bringing a hospice to North Halton.
Thank you to everyone who came and shared in this wonderful ceremony.
Best wishes & blessings to everyone celebrating #Navaratri #MiltonON #Halton
