Toronto is incredibly lucky to have our ravine system!
Let's get out and enjoy them. Thanks, @TorontoStar for the article.

“The ravines are to Toronto what canals are to Venice and hills are to San Francisco,” Robert Fulford wrote in his book.
The best way to ensure the ravines have a healthy future is to help more people enjoy and value them, Star editorial board writes. torstar.co/F6SM50ybROU

I have tables two motions today at Water Budget debate. 1- start process of charging parking lots and large industrial/commercial properties for Stormwater runoff. 1% properties are 42% of impervious surfaces. This will give them an incentive for action.
