Developing Highway 413: Who benefits?

from This Matters Hosted by Toronto Star

Guest: Steve Buist, investigative reporter and feature writer at The Star The Ontario government has resurrected plans to build Highway 413, a new road that runs from Vaughan to Halton Hills. There are several controversial aspects to this planned route and a joint Toronto Star/National Observer investigation has found that a number of developers are set to benefit if this road is built. Looking at land registries, lobbying funds, changed laws and more, there appears to be quite a potential windfall for a number of developers if the Ontario government manages to go ahead and construct this highway.
