This MZO proposal overrides local democracy despite Oakville’s full compliance with provincial policies and proven track record of growth and housing development. Read more

When I pick up my wife or children from the GO train station in Oakville... it is total gridlock on Cross Avenue, Trafalgar, up to McCraney Street. In what scenario can we fit another few thousand residents in the area? Read more
