As I mentioned in the evening news brief last night everyone needs to CHANNEL their disbelief and anger of the Lake Muskoka 2019 flood collectively and quickly. The PC Government of Ontario MUST UPDATE the current watershed management plan they are working from so its in sync with climate change and the new normal. Mega thanks to Martin Ford of Bala for creating this petition to [...]
If you follow us on Instagram or Facebook our predictions about flooding on Lake Muskoka for Spring 2019 are now a reality.
