Sorry to respond to an old post. But I don't agree with this at all. The Conestoga Parkway does not go through any environmentally sensitive areas, so why wouldn't it go through now? Hamilton just built a new freeway, similar to the Conestoga, and other freeway projects are still going on.
On what grounds wouldn't it be permitted?
