"As for the Oshawa waterfront; don't ask. Last month, when Conservative Finance Minister Jim Flaherty announced the Oshawa Harbour Commission would finally be granted Port Authority status, it likely killed any chance of revitalization. Around the world, Port Authorities are recognized as obstacles to city-building. Jane Jacobs once called them "the single greatest impediment to a revitalized waterfront.""
