ANOTHER ORGANIZATION WITH MORE SENSE THAN HIGHLANDS AND BAUPOST PUT TOGETHER

The National Farmers Union (NFU) has sent a letter to the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources this week, recommending that it decline the application made by The Highlands Companies for the Melancthon Quarry. 
“Once the aggregates are removed from beneath prime agricultural land such as this, full rehabilitation is impossible.  The good drainage of „gravel-bottom‟ land is what makes the land so valuable as farmland, especially for higher value crops such as potatoes,” according to Slater.

    I appreciate your headline, Minebuster, but frankly my thirteen year old Poodle has more sense than Highland and Baupost put together. And she has doggy dementia, which is why I don't mind cleaning up the messes SHE makes....
