Comment
The province is encouraged to listen to licensed archaeologists who work within the current system, and who have concrete suggestions on how to streamline processes. There are many inefficiencies in the current system that, if addressed, will increase the speed of approvals which is the stated aim of these amendments.
Creating a new system of exemptions will take time, fixing what is currently broken is low hanging fruit - the quickest way to see meaningful change in the speed of development.
If the goal is to speed up development this is a critical step that needs to occur.
