Is it GFL?

Something that stood out to me in the interview was Bruce saying that they are "going through the steps to assemble some land". Not sure if that means land around Belleville or Hamilton but the ECA for Hamilton includes land west of the Nash Road building across the highway. The address on the ECA's is 2380 Brampton Street.

In the last segment of the interview, Bruce specifically talked about the power of the ECA's as a shield against local community members that may push back against having a waste handling facility in their neighborhood. There has already been pushback against the Hamilton project by a local environmentalist. The facility was used to make fertilizer from sewage sludge back in the 1990s when neighbors called it the "warm barf building" and she fought against it back then so she is skeptical that a new project can keep the odors controlled.

If the plan is to process waste at the empty lot across the freeway from the building then that could face stiffer opposition than just bringing waste into the building because it's obviously in the open air and is also closer to homes. Speculation on my part that the plan is to use the empty lot near the Hamilton building but that seems to make sense with the interview.
