THE PROPOSAL
BACKGROUND

THE PROPONENTS
T.I.L.M.A.

WHO IS CABLE BAY LANDS INC?

  • Cable Bay Lands Inc. is a Calgary registered corporation. It has two directors: George Bains and Dianne Richard.
     
  • There are 2 voting shareholders for Cable Bay Lands: Canadian Property Investments (1997) Inc. and Hunter's Creek Investments Inc.
     
  • Canadian Property Investments (1997) Inc. is also a Calgary corporation. It has one director: Wilf Richard (possibly the spouse of Dianne Richard).
     
  • Wilf Richard was a director of Renco Energy Corporation Ltd. You may want to Google that company to find out more.

It appears that the private "bottom-line" interests of two people are challenging a land-use and growth strategy an entire region has developed.

Our Regional Growth Strategy is about the long term and the greater good of all in the region. The development proposal is about short term profit for a very few.

Do you think this is o.k.? If not, come out to the meetings about this issue and make your voice heard.

WHO ARE WE?

SOS Nanaimo is a group of Regional District of Nanaimo citizens who are banding together to:

  • protect Cable Bay trail from becoming part of an exclusive time-share resort for non-residents
  • prevent unsustainable urban sprawl into our rural community
  • uphold our democratically- created Regional Growth Strategy

We are committed to keeping the rural character of the trail and surrounding area.

We work with other groups fighting similar issues and seeking to defend our local growth strategy from outside, self-interested developers.
