Politics
In the early 1970s, the provincial government expropriated and purchased approximately 8,100 hectares of land in north Pickering.
The Seaton lands (originally known as Cedarwood[5]), have received much attention from local residents and environmentalists. It was a prominent component of the North Pickering Land Exchange of November 2003 enacted by the Liberal provincial government,[6] in which developers received land in Seaton in exchange for lands owned by those developers on the Oak Ridges Moraine, primarily in Richmond Hill and Uxbridge. Development of the area began near Taunton Road in 2017, as well as at Whites Road and Highway 7 as of 2023.
