Shoart Term gain and Long Term pain
The future is being sacrificed in the interests of developers who currently buy lots in mature areas, tear down existing affordable houses and clear cut to make it easier to build their large houses and keep their businesses going. It is ironic that the federal government is undertaking to finish planting the 50 million trees pledged by the former provincial government, in order to do something about climate change, but the Town allows the removal of trees. All you have to do is pay some money and you have permission to remove trees in a Designated Woodlot. The health benefits of trees is well known. Think Long Term Gain for a change!
