Nothing can be further from the truth!!  What started with a text message has blossomed into a new chapter for the OLA - The Haliburton County Landowners Association was born.

Starting your own chapter allow you to do a number of things...

1. bring together others in you community with the same concerns
2. allows community experts to voice their opinions (you have a wealth of knowledge trapped in seniors minds - and no one asks them their viewpoints)
3. you unlock critical opinions and can test theories
4. you can mobilize - once the train starts...people will clamber on!!!
5. your council will find out who you are!!
   • make delegations to express your views!
   • introduce yourself to your local councilors
   • hand deliver documentation for them!!!
     1. Councilors guide
     2. Municipal Act
     3. Planning Act
   • MAKE SURE YOU INFORM THEM YOU KNOW YOUR RIGHTS!!!
6. ***LEAN ON THE OLA FOR SUPPORT EARLY TO PREVENT PITFALLS***

Organizing members in your community for a common good can only result in positive change.  Educate yourself and learn your rights...and don't be afraid to stand up for them!!  

Lastly, who I consider a wise man once told me..."If it doesn't feel right, it likely isn't"

Join the OLA today...make positive change and make a difference in your community!!
