Message | M. Speaker, Recently, Golavia had to cancel a planned highway because one little old lady didn't want to sell her house. Sometimes the individual must give up their property for the good of the public or our corporations. A McAndalay restaurant is better for everyone than a house too. Let's unite for the common good and pass this reasonable legislation. Nethuss Moctos AKC Leader |

Message | M. Speaker, To address the concerns of the Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, this bill does not allow corporations to seize property directly. All eminent domain transactions would occur with the government as an intermediary. Property owners would be compensated fairly under existing law. Nethuss Moctos AKC Leader |
