It’s kinda fucked that they can just lie like that, but it worked in favor of the masses in this case.
What happened? The blurb makes it seem he got rid of protections?
The word "protects" seems almost intentionally misleading here. They are talking about changing zoning requirements to allow for higher density housing, instead of forcing single family home suburbs.
Which seems like a really good thing. So he lied to NIMBY's? I'm... ok with that?
Oh it is a good thing! Sutcliffe is just the embodiment of a suburbanite. He thinks riding bikes is just for leisure, and is all about SFH sprawl and the parking and roads it requires. But of course he doesn't want those people to stop being subsidized by the dense productive neighbourhoods not in suburbia.
Do people not read....
Suttcliff says he opposes it, and the PROVINCE proposed the legislation. Not him.
