City council requesting environment ministers visit Kamloops for Ajax
KAMLOOPS — City council continues to put their foot to the pedal, endorsing staff recommendations to contact the provincial and federal environment ministers at Tuesday council meeting.
However, councillors took it one step forward, wanting the ministers to come to Kamloops for a visit.
“The two applicable ministers should be invited to come to Kamloops. A conversation on the phone or us going to them is just not going to work,” said councillor Tina Lange. “We have a new environment minister with George Hayman and he should definitely come to Kamloops, so you really get a feel of where that mine is and how close it is to people.”
