Barrett Does Not Want to See the Former DCE Handed Over

February 23, 2010 CD98.9

The possibility of handing over the former Douglas Creek Estates to Six Nations people shows the weakness in the Ontario government, says local MPP Toby Barrett. This comes after Haldimand Mayor Marie Trainer told a Hamilton newspaper the province is leaning toward handing over the land. Barrett says he's concerned that the McGuinty government will neither confirm nor deny the rumors. Barrett says turning the land over to the Six Nations band council is the wrong thing to do.
