Comment
The Ontario Heritage Act should not be changed. It was created for a purpose: to preserve our heritage structures and watering down its powers to permit development is counter to its purpose. Instead the government should look to means to increase density in areas which do not have heritage designations, or at minimum, leave the negotiation between the Heritage organizations and the developers to incorporate heritage buildings into their plans.
Too often has this government stepped on the people and our heritage in the name of development, with little consultation before the desecration of heritage sites. One example of note is the Foundry Buildings in Canary District, Toronto.
