Michael DaniherTHE NEW:
Lindsay Broadhead of Hill and Knowlton, new spokesperson for Highlands. Her Linkedin profile states her expertise is in: "Corporate communications, focusing on crisis and issues management"
Yes, yes indeed, I would suggest that Highlands is in crisis as things aren't going so swimmingly for them.
This quote in an article in the Banner is an indication of the "new" direction that Highlands seems to be taking:
"The company’s spokesperson, Lindsay Broadhead, said they are aware of the public’s concerns regarding the quarry’s impact on local culture.
It is important to reiterate that this process is not over. We welcome public scrutiny and feedback on the company’s plan including suggestions about how cultural and heritage concerns can be addressed,” Broadhead said in an email."
Except, according to The Highland Company’s cultural heritage assessment, the cultural landscape has “little integrity in composition and visual character.
An astute reader of the article (Mulmurgal) commented as follows: It seems Highland's new spokesperson from Hill and Knowlton hasn't read the 3,000-page application from her PR firm's newest client. Highland has stated the cultural landscape has "little integrity in composition and visual character." And yet Lindsay Broadhead now claims Highland wants suggestions on how cultural and heritage concerns can be addressed. She should start by asking her new client why it has demolished about 30 farmhouses and barns on its property. Some of those homes dated back to the 1800s and were fine examples of the region's cultural and heritage value. Here's a question for Ms. Broadhead. Isn't it too late for Highland to be open to public scrutiny and feedback on cultural and heritage concerns when it has already destroyed much of the rich agricultural heritage in the Hills of Headwaters? Congratulations to the artists for revealing yet another example of Highland's hypocrisy.

And you can reach Ms. Broadhead for clarification re: her comments or provide your comments as to how you feel cultural and heritage concerns can be addressed to lindsay.broadhead@hillandknowlton.ca
IF you submit a question to Ms. Broadhead be sure you identify that you are asking for information for YOURSELF, NOT for any grassroots organization.
And don't forget, her quote in the paper is: "Highland wants suggestions on how cultural and heritage concerns can be addressed.," so lets give her some (constructive) suggestions. Have at it people.
