It seems they generally come when the PC's have a developer friend wanting to line their pockets and go around the municipalities, but to see the city request them seems odd (also, recently Cambridge with the warehouse in Blair). Can't they just change the zoning themselves without getting the province involved?

The city has to request the MZO, so it's all down to the Cambridge council.

That doesn’t answer the question. An MZO overrides zoning, which is set by City council. So why can’t council just change the zoning? It would be like me asking the City to expropriate my house when I want to move rather than just hiring a realtor.
