SGC Admin: From our inbox to you… We recently signed up with Ecojustice online community, and have received our welcome email containing some interesting information on our environment, its resources and how Eco-Justice is fighting to keep our environment safe and healthy for now and for the future… :)

As lawyers and scientists who promote the protection and restoration of the Canadian environment, our services are free of charge to citizens and community groups which helps facilitate equitable access to environmental justice nationwide. We believe in leading the way, not maintaining the status quo. We lead in four priority areas: Clean water Our leading testimony after the tragedy in Walkerton, ON and our groundbreaking drinking water report cards have helped us identify key threats to Canada’s precious fresh water supply. Guiding the way to better water protection nationwide, our work continues to help modernize Canada’s Water Act. More on Clean Water »
Natural spaces We are national leaders in the fight for legal protection of at-risk species. We helped shepherd Canada’s Species at Risk Act (SARA) into law and paved the way to stronger protection with our precedent-setting lawsuits for endangered species including the greater sage-grouse, killer whale and Nooksack dace. We are also actively involved in the fight for woodland caribou protection. These continued efforts bolster SARA’s strength and scope. More on Natural Spaces »
Healthy communities Our 2001 Supreme Court victory was a major boost to the campaign for a ban on cosmetic pesticide use and kicked off a national movement beginning in the town of Hudson, QC. Bans have since been established in 156 municipalities and in the provinces of Ontario and Quebec. Our work toward a national ban continues.More on Healthy Communities »
Climate Protection The Alberta tar sands have been linked to a plethora of environmental crises. Most specifically – global warming. We have recently established our presence in Calgary, AB and now, Ecojustice is ready to lead the fight against the unrestrained expansion of the world’s most destructive oil extraction processMore on Climate Protection »

You Aries folk are what get us all going… ready to explore and move mountains… well for a little while at least… Even though you guys and gals are full of vim and vigour you aren’t really the kind to stick around to the see the completion of your pioneering projects thanks to your lack of patience… You can get bored easily and the next interesting thing/person that comes along can perk up your ears encouraging you to find out more…..
You are fun to be around and many may wish they were more like you, but you can have your awkward moments when you forget about the feelings of others as Aries puts your own needs first…. Having a partner that understands this is important, but you need to slow down enough so that he/she can explain to you when you have done “wrong” …
You are the beginning of the Zodiac and as such you are like the child who needs a constant gentle reminder to slow down…
Happy Birthday: Steve, Dennis, Maureen, Dean and all Aries folk, we couldn’t get things going without you… Wishing you a fabulous year
