John Findlay, a lawyer, has brought a class action suit against former OPP Comissioner Gwen Boniface, the former Haldimand provincial police detachment commander and the Ontario Government on behalf of several businesses and property owners in Caledonia.

Our Regional Government is wanting to build a bridge here, but it has been held up for years due to lack of agreement with Six Nations.

Ah... So much to blog about, so little time.
