Changes to OWES will leave…

Changes to OWES will leave many wetlands vulnerable to enviromentally destructive practices. Doing this under the guise of streamlining the process is another way of allowing development to cut corners and ignore the value of wetlands in providing vital services that society depend on. These new updates will eventually result in fewer wetlands coming under the protection of the Provincial Significant Wetlands and leaving them unprotected from the ravages of uncontrolled development and ultimately vulnerable to destruction. It is unbelievable that we allow our elected officials, the keepers of our land and values, to abandon their roles in favour of material gain for their developer friends.
