Nobody should erect a fence on the beach to cut off access to the citizens.The man who built the fence should take it down or let the person who tried to cut it with a chainsaw use it for firewood.

Thanks for the Reality of What Needs to Be Done ...

as Good Regional Transit Essential for Governance at ALL levels Article by a Nieve GTA Ontario Reporter

In an article that reads like a Press Release by the Province to Defend It's Actions

We Smell a reporter who has probably NEVER had to Sit Thru Endless Developer Won OMB Hearings

We also Smell of a Reporter Whom has Never had to Endure the End Result of a Non Democratic Governance Result of a BIG Government is Better, an " Expert Kitchen Report "

It is starting to get nasty in Balm Beach with this fence issue.The man has legal right to have the fence but it never should have been built in the first place.The locals can get very emotional over something like this.I seen this situation in Hawaii when a hotel erected a chain link fence on the beach to total enclose it,s property and the locals went wild and desroyed it.Even in Malibu the stars can,t block access to the beach.No one should.

The guy who built the fence attacked a 14 year old boy who was walking in the water around the fence. he is out of control on a power trip fueled by his fantasy of controlling the entire beach. He needs help!
