A virtual town hall meeting is set for tomorrow morning in Wheatley so residents can get some answers to their many questions surrounding last week’s explosion.
Many residents are still dealing with the fallout from the August 26th gas explosion that injured several people and leveled 2 buildings.
Tomorrow morning representatives from the municipality and province will be available to answer any questions or concerns you have.
Among the local representatives, CK Mayor Darrin Canniff, local Councillor Melissa Harrigan, CAO Don Shropshire, and Fire Chief Chris Case.
Reps from the Ministry of Northern Development, Mines, and Natural Resources will also be on hand.
“We understand that people have a lot of questions,” Shropshire says. “In a pre-Covid world, we would be holding the meeting in Wheatley but the next best thing is for us to use technology to reach out virtually. I encourage anyone in Wheatley who has questions to participate. We may not have all of the answers but we will do our best.”
The event begins at 10 am and will be available on the municipal Facebook site and YouTube channel.
