OMAFRA has made it very clear that the end of SARP will put the horse racing industry on a short clock. Specifically, that it "will cease to exist."

This was touched on in another thread by Highwater as well.

The estimated impact province-wide is something on the order of 60,000 jobs and 13,000 horses, and the death knell not just for a 37-year-old Flamborough institution but for a heritage industry that dates back to the Victorian era.

To me, this is an object lesson in the OLG's business philosophy, which seems to me considerably less than holistic.
