Again, this was about rich people making money.

That it's net-negative for all of Ontario doesn't matter--what matters is that it was lucrative "for stakeholders".

Spend enough time in business, especially small and medium businesses like Deco--and you'll see this sort of stakeholder-driven decisionmaking a lot. Management is great at focusing on specific metrics and goals to rationalize decisions, even if it hurts the organization as a whole.
