As a grassroots organization that recently campaigned against the construction of a float glass plant in Stratford, we felt a sense of deja vu when we learned that St. Clair Township’s council is considering inviting Xinyi Glass Canada to build this plant in St. Clair.
Council’s “letter of support” encouraged the corporation to “strongly consider” locating the plant in the township, but that decision raises numerous concerns because it doesn’t offer any indication that the municipality has undertaken due diligence and consideration of the facts, consultation with the public or First Nations people, or reflection on the actual environmental impact of a massive, heavy industrial float glass plant.
