Environment Haliburton (EH!) asked all candidates running in the municipal election a series of questions relating to environmental issues facing the County. The first question focused on transportation: “Communities across Haliburton County recognize the need for and value of public transit.
Without public transportation employers cannot find employees, seniors stay at home, youth
cannot participate in school activities and we increase our release of greenhouse gases. The
County has contracted for a plan to implement the shared booked ride model proposed by the
Transportation Task Force. For more information go to www.transportationhaliburtoncounty.ca
If you are elected, will you commit to implementing an operating transit system by the
end of your 4-year term?”
