There’s a strange email being sent around this week to residents of Wilmot Township.
It’s telling people that they should vote for a whole new township mayor and councillors, instead of returning the incumbents to office. The challengers are said to be better protectors of the township’s land and water, who will take action to prevent an industrial mega-site from being built on 770 acres of prime farmland in the township.
