This on-line petition is in addition to the on-going printed version. It is for those in Guelph who have not yet signed--and for others who support this statement.
Wal-Mart, the worlds biggest corporation, has been attempting for 10 years to build a 135,000 sq. ft. mega store (and accompanying big box centre) at a very sensitive religious, cultural, natural, and agricultural location in Guelph, Ontario, Canada.
A city cannot legally deny a business from setting up within its limits. A city and its residents can, however, demand that businesses who wish to set up conform to its Official Plan. WAL-MART has selected a location in Guelph (between the cemeteries and the Ignatius Jesuit Centre) that is NOT appropriate for a major commercial development.
WE oppose a WAL-MART in Guelph at the corner of Woodlawn Road and Woolwich Street.
