You CANNOT:
- Gut environmental assessment processes.
- Fast-track mining and infrastructure development — including in ecologically sensitive and contested areas like the Ring of Fire — without proper consultation or consent from Indigenous communities.
- Adopt a “register-first, ask-questions-later” model for species-at-risk permits, allowing developers to proceed before environmental implications are fully known.
- Establish “special economic zones” where Cabinet can exempt areas and companies from applicable laws – a move that raises serious concerns around transparency, accountability, and environmental stewardship.
Just so you can pocket more money at the end of the day. This will impact current and future generations and is NOT about efficiency.
I included an article that demonstrates conservatives don't care at the end of the day and are willing to harm others for the purpose of monetary gain. Your new legislation makes it easier to disregard the social contract of transparency and serving the public. Your new legislation makes it so you can disregard endangered species even more blatantly.
