MP Freeman makes pitch for rural septic help
Conservatives contend the matter falls under provincial jurisdiction and the fed- eral government should not intervene. Since all levels of government share responsibility for managing waste water collection, “Nothing prevents us from working with the provinces and territo- ries to find an effective and responsible way to help Canadians living in rural ar- eas. Waste water management is a shared responsibility, and that is why my motion specifically calls on the government to work with provinces and territories and municipalities.”
“The federal and provincial governments already provide up to 85 per cent of the funds requested by municipalities to build or upgrade their waste water management infrastructures. However, in rural areas, it is impossible to do so. Therefore, while rural Canadians pay the same taxes as everybody else, they are left to fend for themselves.” For 30 years, waste water from isolated dwellings has been identified as a signifi- cant source of pollution, she continued. In- adequate, outdated, clogged or non-com- pliant septic systems increase loadings of phosphorus, the main source of eutrophi-
cation, in rivers and lakes. “It is now well known that this increase in loadings in phosphorus can promote the development of excessive cyanobac- teria, well known as blue-green algae.” She noted that Gore Township has complained that housing programs “do not address the socio-economic issue be- ing described” and “the funds allocated for the region are laughable compared to potential demand.” Applications for upgrading septic sys- tems are not eligible under the programs’ criteria. “Meanwhile, rural homeowners living on small or fixed incomes are often forced to ignore the inadequacy of their septic systems and the environmental impact because they just do not have the means to invest in upgrading them.”

OTTAWA | Argemteuil-Papineau-Mira- bel MP Mylène Freeman continued to press in the House of Commons last week for federal aid to help rural home- owners improve their septic systems. The idea, initiated by Gore Township Mayor Scott Pearce, has met opposition from the government. “The government’s response to the mo- tion was to try very hard to ignore the is- sues raised,” said the NDP member.

Des compagnies feraient du porte-à- porte pour proposer un service de véri- fication et de remplissage d’extincteurs d’incendie, prétendant être mandatés par le service des incendies de Grenville-sur- la-Rouge. Ce n’est toutefois pas le cas. Ces compagnies mettraient de la pression sur les citoyens pour vendre leurs produits puis exigeraient d’être payés d’avance pour leurs services.
