The Niagara Heritage Partnership hopes
that visitors to this page are generally aware of our position regarding parkway removal.
It is also our position that the Niagara gorge is part of the world's natural
treasure, and that, therefore, it does not "belong" to any of us because of
where we happen to live more than it belongs to anyone else.
While we do not necessarily endorse all
the statements and opinions expressed in these letters, we present them here because we
acknowledge there are issues to be discussed and solved.
Happy reading!
