The space created on the Woodland Bike Bridge has brought much needed connection to community. As a disabled person existing in an often inaccessible world, the space brings me so much joy and support. Expanding the garden, while leaving space for emergency vehicles and bicycles is more than doable. We see so many vehicles still using the bridge. More development of community space should curtail that.
Logan supported: Enhance Woodland Bridge with Community GardensThis is such a perfect spot to connect with community, and Tajai has been instrumental in keeping it beautiful and bringing people together. I hope the city supports his mission of creating a welcoming community space here.
Megan supported: Enhance Woodland Bridge with Community GardensThe community led improvements to the Woodland bridge have turned it into an oasis in the midst of busy trains and traffic. I cross the bridge almost daily and it’s gone from a stressful and noisy walk to a calm and peaceful stroll where you can check out a beautiful garden and say hello to your neighbors. Dedicating community garden space will mean more community engagement, and hopefully act as a deterrent to the drivers who continue to dangerously (and illegally) use the bridge despite signage and traffic cones. The people who have helped build this community space should be proud and deserve to have their work honored and celebrated!
Marta supported: Enhance Woodland Bridge with Community GardensTajai has grown more than a beautiful garden, he’s grown a community in our neighbourhood.
Jeffrey supported: Enhance Woodland Bridge with Community GardensOntario’s forests, wetlands, and rivers are more than just landscapes, they are living, breathing ecosystems that sustain us in ways we often take for granted. Every time we walk through a forest, hear birdsongs at dawn, or witness the delicate balance between predator and prey, we are reminded that nature is not separate from us but it is a part of us.
Bill 5 threatens to disrupt this delicate balance by stripping away environmental protections that safeguard Ontario’s biodiversity. The loss of species isn’t just about numbers, it’s about the disappearance of experiences that nourish the soul and heal the mind. The sight of a monarch butterfly dancing between wildflowers, the rustling of ancient trees, or the quiet presence of a deer at dusk
these moments are not just beautiful, they are vital.
Biodiversity is not a luxury!! It is the foundation of life itself. Every species, no matter how small, plays a role in maintaining the health of our air, water, and soil. When we weaken protections for endangered species and allow unchecked development to erase habitats, we aren’t just losing wildlife, we are losing the deep, restorative connection that nature offers to us all.
I urge lawmakers to reconsider Bill 5. Let’s choose a future where economic progress does not come at the expense of the very life force that sustains us.
Annalee supported: Bill 5 and the Critical Importance of Biodiversity to Life on EarthBeyond the fact this proposal is completely antithetical to energy, ethos, and charm of Hudson, the citizens of Hudson cannot continue to sit back and allow MAJOR decisions that affect our day to day lives be made in such anti-democratic methods. The town must be held to a much higher standard. Hudson’s citizens have a right to be consulted when major industrial projects are proposed. To even think this was at all ok process-wise is unbelievable.
johanna supported: Let’s Rethink Lakeview Together / Repenser Lakeview ensembleI hope for the residents as well as for the rest of our citizens that a suitable compromise can be made with something smaller in scale more fitting to Hudson’s charm. Cars will be going faster on a wider road, bicycles and people on the same trip do not mix well. The plan is designed for a major artery, not a small village road through a quiet residential zone.
Cathy supported: Let’s Rethink Lakeview Together / Repenser Lakeview ensembleI walked that street 4 times a day for 11 years. It is in terrible condition and does need replacing BUT it need to be a quiet residential east west avenue not a major boulevard. Save the trees, especially the beautiful cedar hedges. Yes some trees are not great but others are okay and need to be saved. If they make it wide, what about water leaks on the old 6'' transite mains and entrances?
Yes fix the street but not so wide.
Rod supported: Let’s Rethink Lakeview Together / Repenser Lakeview ensembleI strongly support saving this golf course green space. Because cost was/is obviously an issue for the City, perhaps it could identify those taxpayers/golfers (I, for one) who would be willing to add $50/annum to their property tax to share the cost of upkeep. Let's not let the previous municipal government's legacy, including lack of foresight, ruin that area for now and the next several generations.
