Thank you for this opportunity.
We are especially disturbed by section 10 of Bill 66. We live in a rural area east of Kingston with lots of lakes and rivers. We know the pressure from construction and marine developers.

We know from extensive research that shorelines are the ribbon of life and need to be protected. Marshes clean water, trees and plants clean air. These things are the basis of life. We are angry that business will be allowed to degrade the natural scenic beauty and the powerful health effects of nature for profit. It is short sighted and destroys our golden goose the is the basis of our healthy life, our tourism and our economy.

Please do not allow this to happen. It is not going to work in any case because the protections on these areas are federally placed as well and this law will just be another case of Ontario pitting itself against Canada for no benefit.

Please do not vote this bill 66 in. I don’t know enough about other areas in the bill but I don’t want farmland degraded either. We need to keep farmland for the future. Also I believe that the people who make the profit should do the cleanup if they degrade the environment.

Thank you for this opportunity.
