These changes strip away the authority of the MNR to play a significant role in the designation of provincially significant wetlands, pushing most of the decisionmaking into the hands of the same stakeholders who stand to benefit from the development of these areas. These stakeholders cannot be trusted to be unbiased in their decision making and their assessment of environmental impacts.

Surely there are other areas that could be demolished, rebuilt and redeveloped rather than continually expanding development into sensitive habitats and wiping out at risk-plants and animals.
