Dangerous bypass in Caledonia

For nearly two years the OPP has done little to stop repeated examples of Native Protesters from throwning objects over the bypass onto the traffic below. In Aug. 2006 both the Mayor and I spoke on CHCH TV about this problem. In Sept. 2006, several more vehicles were damaged and in one case the driver ran and caught the people who committed this crime... the OPP were stationed nearby watching but refused to help or stop the people from throwing objects over the bypass. It took the OPP 8 months to issue a press release warning the public. The problem has continued solely because the OPP refuse to deal with the Native Protesters who repeatedly use this very bridge to endanger people's lives.

This week more vehicles have been damaged - again no warning from the OPP or any action to stop these crimes. Here is a email from Mayor Trainer to OPP Insp. McLean:

Sent on behalf of Mayor Marie Trainer, Residents have been complaining about the damage caused by people throwing items off the Sterling Street bridge onto the Highway #6 bypass. Could someone please advise of any precautions taking place so that no one is injured or killed as a result. Thank you.

I guess someone must be injured before the OPP will act - remember Sam Gaultieri.
