Court Throws Roadblock To Kanata Golf Deal

This is a release from the office of Kanata North Councillor Cathy Curry:

Earlier today, the Ontario Court of Appeal released their decision on the Ottawa v. Clublink Corporation ULC File regarding the potential development of the Kanata Golf and Country Club/greenspace lands. You can view the decision at Ottawa (City) v. ClubLink Corporation ULC – Court of Appeal for Ontario.




It will take some time for us and City staff to review, but I wanted to send this out as soon as I could. As a general comment, there is a fairly all-encompassing comment at the end of the ruling that indicates that the court sees declaring the entire 40% agreement void as the way forward. As you can imagine, we are currently trying to digest what this means.

To offer some hope, I have already connected with all three levels of government to ensure that each understands its various powers to act here. I will follow up with more information in the Kanata North Community Newsletter that comes out this Friday.

Thank you,

Councillor Cathy Curry

    When this happened in Oakville, the Provincial govt made a deal with the golf course there to preserve it. With a provincial election imminent, it will be interesting to see what happens and if Uncle Dougy will step in. Problem is that the person fighting for the 40% agreement strongly came out for the Liberals at the last election and may have swayed the election. Something to watch. My fear, as a resident of Kanata, is the whole of Kanata 40% agreement is now totally dead which means some well used parkland may be at risk now. Despite what the “density-is-best: group advocates, having greenspace is not a bad thing
