As far as transportation…

As far as transportation infrastructure is concerned, no farm land should be re-zoned for the proposed 413 highway until all the potential options for fully utilizing the existing 407 highway by the general public and/or and trucking transportation industry. If the highway can not be returned to the public, the government should least consider ways to encourage/mandate the full usage of this highway at least by the transportation industry. Currently this highway is used only by people who can afford to pay for the convenience. A two tiered system that should not exist in our province and should definitely should not be allowed to exist at the environmental sacrifice of some of the provinces best farmland. Farmland that is be whittled away by encroachment, changes to the land laws and the big dollars of fulfillment centers that pave over this land for profit and low paid jobs.
