NEW DATE: It’s autumn, and the planning has begun. If you are interested in bringing your ideas about our community’s resilience to the forefront of the county’s planning process, then join us Tuesday, October 4th. We are hosting Sabine from Bruce County, who is eager to listen to the ideas from community members, Transition and otherwise. This is our chance to say what we believe is important in the future of our community.
Come with constructive ideas to BPDS at 4pm. We look forward to the chance to share and hear each other’s ideas. There have been so many good ones over the past 18 months we have been thinking Transition-ally, let’s see if we can work them into our local plan.
The post below has links to documents that may help you prepare for this meeting. Have a look around!

After a discussion re bylaw revisions at the schhol I happened to pick up and begin to read “Tools for Conviviality ” by Ivan Illich. It struck me how relevant some of his ideas from 40 years ago are rlevant and prophetic regarding our present day perdicament. I then looked him up on wikipedia and found it even more interesting. Just a warning that teachers may be shocked or threatened by some of his ideas, however there was a particularly relevant tidbit under the “concepts category rlating to cars that I though might be of interest to those suggesting the reduction of automotive use. Hope you have fun if you explore this.
