I understand the need to…

I understand the need to revise this process but there is too much emphasis given to industry that affects the rights of the general public. Business has the ability to lobby government to rule in their favour while small community groups that oppose a project cannot afford lengthy court battles.

With respect to Crown land, projects should only be allowed to continue when they do not affect the enjoyment of Crown land...or neighbouring properties...by the public.

With respect to gravel pits, industry has the financial ability to move away from Crown land, land which is there for us all to enjoy.

Also let us respect Aboriginal rights as they pertain to Crown land.

Thank you.
