There must be some unexplained backroom shenanigans going on with the Provincial Government ALR relationship.
Both the Glover Road overpass and gravel mining of Brown Pit have received preliminary approval. Is this bullying? Is this bribery? Is this political payoff? It certainly is neither valid nor legitimate.
Brown Pit mining would not only endanger but damage the overstressed and large fragile Hopington aquifer. An easy preview of what will inevitably happen is the Stokes Pit history. The government had their way, contaminated the water supply, and devastated the community.
Glover Road overpass design seems to purposely and maliciously impose a large S curve in BC’s historic and fertile Hudson Bay Farm. This will finish it off as useful agricultural land. It is obviously designed to pave the way for real estate and industrial development.
How is it possible for this august body, the ALR, who usually turns down every proposal often protecting useless non-arable land just as a matter of principle, and here they roll over for Kevin Falcon and his cohort of bullies.
Interestingly the commission decisions are also unappealable. I assume that also means that they aren’t required to answer to me or other citizens regarding their unconscionable conduct outlined above.
We are a first world country. We are theoretically a democracy. Could anybody in a position of authority in the ALR give a credible, honest explanation for this complete miscarriage of justice and fairness?
