Petition Tag - pretty river academy grants for collingwood

Federal and provincial governments have granted $523,000 to Pretty River Academy, a PRIVATE school in Collingwood, to build a soccer field for its 156 students. Applications by the Town of Collingwood for other more needed public recreational facilities under the same program were turned down. Taxpayers' money should not be used for this purpose.

The MP for Simcoe-Grey claims credit for the grants and argues it is a good use of public resources. The situation is farcical and needs to be corrected.
