Land defenders on the HCBP Occupation: Standing up for one of Guelph's last old-growth forests
Aug. 10, 2009, 10:26 a.m.
Community members and allies from throughout Southern Ontario have been occupying the Hanlon Creek Business Park (HCBP) development site in the south end of Guelph since 27 July 2009, halting preliminary developments of the planned 675-acre corporate industrial development.
The occupation serves to prevent one of the last Old Growth Forests in Guelph (for example, there exists the Victoria & Wild Goose Woods in The Arboretum at the University of Guelph which are Old Growth Forests --Yup! Theyâve never been clear cut, thank god), not to mention in Southern Ontario, and the lands surrounding it from being forever damaged by commercial and industrial development.
An eviction notice was issued for July 30th but a Guelph court granted the people protesting at the site a one week reprieve with certain conditions.
Several of these community members speak about some of the issues surrounding the development.
