With Friday Harbour Resort, a 600 acres mega-development currently under construction on the protected shoreline of Lake Simcoe, as my case study, I examine the contradictory and conflicting processes of sub/urbanization extending across the Greater Golden Horseshoe Region. This involves research into policies, forms of governance as well as other socio-spatial, ecological and economic processes that are contributing to the ongoing proliferation of exclusionary and fragmented geographies that typify this rapidly sub/urbanizing region. In addition, I examine alternative forms of opposition and new possibilities for resistance.enAuthor owns copyright, except where explicitly noted.
