I noticed when conservation…

I noticed when conservation sent me an updated map of our farm for a wetland adjustment that all the symbols on the bottom of map were called HAZARD, ie wetland hazard. The timing of this is coincidental to bill 23 and the changes to the regulation authority that CAs have. If bill 23 was supposed to help build new homes and help ease development applications and speed up the process then why in the world is MNR allowing CAs a new way to constrain development? I can see the importance of hazard mapping in the urban area where lots of people live but why is it in the rural area ? It is not ground truthed in the rural area and if i can put on a pair of boots and stand in a bit of wetland water then how is that a Hazard?
This hazard mapping will have a profound Agricultural as well as rural homeowner impact as there will be buffers and setbacks and CAs will again be part of the permitting process. With bill 23 we were finally getting somewhere with reducing red tape to getting permits especially with many of these bogus PSWs that were not ground truthed but called PSWs. And now you want to allow another loophole for land to be constrained requiring studies and special permits in order to obtain a permit. Make up your mind!!!!
We were even hoping that the province would disband all CAs from any regulatory authority and have a new central CA that manages day to day provincial matters. Many local CAs are in business for themselves raising money for their parks and their own projects. Power and control hungry looking for any way to restrict and constrain. Come on PROVINCE, see this for what it is, a LOOPHOLE to create more RED TAPE and CONSTRAIN to any kind of development. WETLAND HAZARD!!!! Give me a break!!!
