    APRIL 14, 2015 Page 1 of 93 11. C.23 - CW INFO FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE March 25, 2015 Pettapiece presents Network Southwest plan to transport minister (Queen’s Park) – When it comes to improved local transportation options, Perth-Wellington MPP Randy Pettapiece wants to get the province on board. Today in the legislature, Pettapiece presented Steven Del Duca, Ontario’s transportation minister, with a copy of the Network Southwest plan unveiled March 18 in St. Marys. “I explained to the minister how important this is to many in our community,” said Pettapiece. “He was very receptive,” he added. The MPP also wrote to the minister on behalf of the 86 people who signed postcards to support the Network Southwest plan. He presented all the postcards directly to the minister along with a full copy of the plan. The postcards state: “High quality intercity transportation, based on rail and bus, is a necessity of any modern nation. Southwestern Ontario has a particular need, due to high road congestion, population density and diverse economic activity.” They also call for a definitive study on the concept plan as outlined by Network Southwest. Pettapiece has written and spoken many times about the importance of improved transportation options – and, in particular, the need to extend GO transit service through Perth-Wellington. Last year the MPP took the extra step of submitting an Order Paper question on the Premier’s stated intention of extending GO transit service to our riding. Pettapiece was not pleased by the response, which made no mention of rural transportation challenges, focusing instead on the government’s promises for the Greater Toronto-Hamilton area.
