Since the trucks have been re-routed, they have been causing road deterioration.
The trucks are travelling through residential area, causing noise pollution and causing pot-holes and other road defects, throughout our town, rather than just on the original highway route.
2. INCREASE POLICE NUMBERS IN WELLINGTON 
Wellington has a very High crime rate, with break & enters, theft, assault and crimes associated with drugs and alcohol consumption.
We believe that increasing police numbers will reduce crime.
3. Guelph-Wellington Food Charter
(Click here to view or print the Food Charter).
Is food a part of your life? We believe that anyone who answers "yes" to this question should have a say in where their food comes from, how their food is produced, and how those factors impact their communities now and in the future.
The United Nations Covenant on Social, Economic, and Cultural Rights acknowledges the right for all to have access to adequate food. Our Food Charter builds on this Covenant so that we can work together to build a vibrant, sustainable, food-secure community.
4. PublicACTA - The Wellington Declaration
ACTA is a controversial international treaty that impacts digital rights and is being negotiated in secret meetings. PublicACTA has been organised by InternetNZ so that the public can critique the known and likely content of ACTA proposals ahead of the next round in Wellington.
The signatures on this petition as at midday NZ time on 13 April were attached to the copy of the Declaration provided to the ACTA negotiators that day.
You are still encouraged to sign the petition, in show of your support for the Wellington Declaration, and the petition will be kept open indefinitely.
5. Stop Japan's whaling programme
The Japanese Government and the pacifist people it represents are on a collision course with Australasia over whaling.
It is bad enough that they continue to slaughter the relatively small minke whales on spurious research grounds. Or that they kill highly intelligent dolphins, or that they continue to blindly overfish migratory tuna to the extent these mighty fish will one day be gone. Now they are proposing to kill fin whales and the mysterious and gentle humpbacks, both species that are still threatened.
Hunted to the brink, humpbacks have been protected since 1986 when commercial whaling was banned. Now Japan is embarking on the biggest cull since that time, sheltering behind a deceitful "scientific research" programme. After killing tens of thousands of whales over the past two decades, despite ever increasing protests, the only question that remains unanswered is how many more will be harpooned before Japan drops the pretence and admits it is once again a commercial whaler.
Japan must be left in no doubt their actions in the southern ocean are deeply offensive and must be resisted on every possible front.

6. Cold bottled water for Ottawa
I have supplied cold water to thirsty costumers that included Pauls Boat line, RCMP, taxi drivers and many tourists, since June 2005, until present on Wellington St. close to Pauls Boat line at the gate entrance to the back yard of the Parliament buildings.
In three years I have never had a problem selling in this location. The RCMP, Police and bylaws have been aware of my presence.
