Oakville's Opportunity!

I just finished "Greenliving" magazine's spring issue, and what a wonderful uplifting publication. This issue is all about outlining the Canada's Greenest Cities of Tomorrow. Unfortunately, Oakville is not on the list, and for me that is a great opportunity. Wouldn't it be amazing to be living in the healthiest town we can, with great public transit, people riding their bikes not just for exercise but also a legitimate way of getting around, that Tim Horton's and especially Starbucks would serve you coffee and donuts on china plates and  in china cups when you're eating at the store instead of creating the mounds of trash just outside. That the board of education would realize that walking to school is important for a small child's education.

I would like to praise the city about the use of Hybrids for parking enforcement, but wouldn't it be great if Ford would finally put a small car Hybrid into production.  Isn't it great that we finally have a tree cutting by-law with some teeth. All these changes are having a positive effect on your community. Keep up the good work Oakville, we will be on the list soon enough.

Have a great green day!
