I wish I had a more eloquent comment to make, but I'm so dumbfounded by this proposal, the only words that come to mind are, "What's wrong with you, Ontario? Seriously?" I thought my province (New Brunswick) currently had the worst government leadership, but I've changed my mind.

People and nature over profits!!!!!! Why are developers not focusing on revitalizing areas like the inner cities. Our cities such as Hamilton are like a donut with a big hole in the middle (ex Barton Street). They should be buying these properties and revitalizing with new developments. Read more

I can't help but feel that the government completely ignored all of the submitted comments that said that Ontarians DON'T want to lose SAR protections.
