Request a localized socio-economic baseline that distinguishes Melgund Township's specific labor and business capacity from the broader 'Northwestern Ontario' region cited in the text.
Strategic Rationale
"The text promises 'long-term employment... in northwestern Ontario,' but this broad regional definition risks bypassing the immediate host community. Dyment and Borups Corners may face the infrastructure strain of the project without accessing the benefits if the Proponent relies on labor from larger regional centers. Establishing a specific local baseline is crucial to ensure economic promises translate into tangible opportunities for Melgund residents rather than just regional statistics."
