I oppose Bill 5. We need greater protection of endangered species, prioritize environmental review and scientific advice.

This Bill weakens environmental protections in Ontario, emphasizes the harm to biodiversity, endangered species, and Indigenous rights, while also highlighting the potential for economic setbacks and social injustice. The "Special Economic Zones" proposed will likely fail and that the new Species Conservation Act will allow developers to harm vulnerable wildlife without strong oversight.
