The following information was forwarded to this blog. Thanks for the detailed information.
The
company that is planning proposed test site in Dysart et al ( Harcourt
Township) on approx. 2000 acres of property fronting on Elephant Lake Road and
Benoir Lake Road has scheduled Saturday Feb 22nd 2014 at 11am in
Harcourt at Community Centre. Armatec develops and manufactures composite
materials for the Canadian and US military.
Armatec
Proposal: Company will be presenting their proposal Feb 22nd 2014 Harcourt
Community Centre. They plan to test armoured vehicles by planting explosive
devices under them to determine damage. The more people there to show we do not
want this the better. 90 explosions per year to start.
There are 2 online petitions against this, please pass it along, sign and let our councillors know we don't want this.

Let's get as many people out to the Council meeting on March 3rd as possible. I strongly oppose Armatec coming into this area. It is not suitable for them to be here and most locals do not want them in this area.

Royal Canadian Legion
Haliburton Branch 129

I think the Council got the idea a large crowd could show up so they moved to a larger venue to accommodate the crowd. Let's fill the Legion!
