Congratulations to Ryden's for weathering the COVID-19 pandemic (with good humour), getting back on track, and having such optimism! Interesting to hear that "most of" the parcels that got stalled there during the pandemic have been picked up. :)
"We have the property appraised by an accredited appraiser, then the actual settlement offers are formalized. Those offers do have an incentive, and payments associated with that. So if someone chose to take a different option other than the voluntary settlement, those incentives would tend to drop off the table accordingly," said Hydro One Vice President, Sonny Karunakaran. Typical pressure tactics from a powerful industry that has ample funds and knows it can have its way. In a just society, laws would prohibit this tactic, and ongoing cases of public vs. private interest would have to go before the courts.
