They did it to play an extra hour of golf. Some rich guy is the reason it came back in Ontario, New York to play golf. Money is the reason it happened and everyone believes it was the farmers. It was not. Now the states have to agree to the change because it would once again affect money if it were to change. I'm beyond frustrated with this as an issue.
