A proposed racetrack near the hamlet of Rosebud has been given the green light by an environmental appeals board. The motorsports park project has stirred up controversy between farmers and conservationists seeking to protect wetlands and birdlife and those eager to have a venue for racing. The plan has faced opposition from environmental groups, who argue that it will damage sensitive wetlands and harm birds. However, supporters of the racetrack say it will provide a much-needed space for car enthusiasts and create jobs in the area. The board’s decision is a blow to conservationists, who have been fighting to save the wetlands for years. They argue that the racetrack will destroy critical habitat for birds and other wildlife. Supporters of the racetrack, on the other hand, say it will be an economic boon to the area and will attract visitors from all over the province. The racetrack is expected to open in 2024.
