C«IOur politicai system in Canada lays out certain respon- sibilities ta different government levels,» said Batten. "But-if you start doubling-up and different levels of govern- ment use their power and dictate to others, this is a doubling-up of tax dollars, it's coF1ing the tax- payerasmore." Batn said that when Queen's Park interferes» in local plan- ning' decisions, it essentiallz, means « municipalities aren t, doing their jobs."» t He resents this implication. «When ail is said and dons, municipalities are closest to the people,» saidBatten. «I ;would think the provincial. <governrnent bas enough areas'of responsibility without-looking for more work to do," he added.
