I support brownfield development over the consuming of more greenfield.
Seems pretty simple to me, the brownfields are already supported by infrastructure, water, sewers, roads, transit, hospitals, etc.
Also, I think the province or the feds, should be the ones that provide the interim financing that Turkstra mentions in the article, not the city. Let's hope we can get some traction on brownfield re-development as a economic stimulant in a new Federal Government that might be forming out of the Liberals, NDP and Bloc.
Our NDP MP's might take on a whole new level of importance in the governing of Canada.
