The province has declined a proposal to put a golf course on the protected land of West Mabou Beach.
Premier Tim Houston told reporters Thursday morning that the government declined the application from the Cabot company after weighing the pros and cons of the project.
“We’ve actually reached the conclusion now that the asks that the proponent would have would be unreasonable,” said Houston.
He said there was not enough in the proposal to take to the next stage, which would have been consulting First Nations and people in the community.
