In episode #416 of Talking Radical Radio, Scott Neigh interviews Emma Cunningham of Environmental Action Now Ajax-Pickering. They recently won an important victory against an attempt to build a warehouse on Duffins Creek wetland, a protected wetland in the middle of Pickering. Groups in communities across Ontario are currently facing similar struggles, as pro-development municipal councils and the provincial government are making increasing use of Minister's Zoning Orders (MZOs) to push forward development regardless of environmental and community consequences. Cunningham talks about how they won the fight in Pickering, and about what other communities can learn from it.
