    As a recently retired professor who built specialization courses & tracks for local post-secondary schools in sustainability, the approval of this proposal violates every aspect of what our valued institutions are teaching this generation of bachelor degree & graduate students. The challenge with sustainability issues is that poor decisions have to be dealt with by not the existing generation of leaders but the following ones, which we are now training. The Council & associated leaders have a real opportunity to create a positive legacy by rejecting this application, thereby earning the respect of the next generation of leaders, inspiring them to achieve even greater improvements to the quality of life for all generations, including those to come. Sincerely, Dr. Stephen J. Hummel, P.Eng.
