This week Mark and Krystyn question the existence of a two-tiered law enforcement system for environmental crime: one for “urban” areas and one for “pristine” areas.  We revisit an Application for Investigation Lake Ontario Waterkeeper submitted in Cobourg, where the government decided not to take action.  We also look at another case in Oshawa, where the Ministry of the Environment has decided to investigate the Harmony landfill.
