I agree with her on developing the airport land for jobs.

I know two companies from Missy that's seriously looking at Hamilton (BD is one). Invitrogen recently relocated to Burlington because there was no good land available in Hamilton. So really if we develop the airport land we would probably be stealing some of Missy's tax money. They are relocating to Hamilton because of two things, larger health sector in Hamilton and they deal with YHM for all of their cargo. Cheaper to ship to YHM and be next to the airport for their warehouse instead of driving your cargo from YHM to your GTA warehouse, high gas price is actually a good thing.
