WHAT IS EK-COG?
Our full name is a mouthful - so, we often go by "EK-COG" for short. EK-COG aims to engage Council to bring integrity and real accountability back to local government.
If you live here, then this is your home - your community. You have a moral obligation to contribute to it, even if only in a small way. Councillors are not mind-readers - they deserve to know what residents want. Through EK-COG, you'll be able to tell them in a meaningful way. We are not advocates for individual residents. We tackle the broad issues - things that all residents should be concerned about ... flawed processes, cover-ups, fiscal issues, etc.
There are lots of ways to become involved with EK-COG. It doesn't have to be a big time commitment - "many hands make light work". If you have some ideas, or you would like more info, we want to hear from you. Send us an email, or connect with us on Facebook - we've provided buttons at the top of each page. If they don't work for you, send us an email at the following address: info @ ekcog.org
Also, consider joining our mailing list so we can keep you informed - [click] to fill in our form. Spread the word to your neighbours, especially if you know they don't have a computer - we'll keep in touch by regular postal mail, if they're willing to cover the costs.
Together, we can bring about positive change.

PLEASE ATTEND COUNCIL MEETINGS
The clearest, most effective message you can send to Council, is to attend their meetings. So long as the public gallery is empty, they will get the impression that no one cares.
It would be hypocritical to hold Council responsible for the outcome of all things if we are perpetually absent from the process, ourselves.
Typically, Council meetings are held on Mondays. [Click] to open the Township's official calendar in a new window.
