We should be using our privilege to create greener communities and working towards existing in a healthy balance with the environment. I am strongly against Bill 66 because it will allow temporary business opportunities to take precedence over the fragile balance of Ontario's ecosystems. I want to live in a place with drinkable water, clean air, and protected wilderness, not additional factories and exposure to toxic chemicals. I'm sure many Ontarians would feel the same. As a member of Burlington's youth I'm concerned about the world we'll grow up in, and everyone I talk to seems to agree that we want to build up, not out; we want to preserve the greenbelt and protect our land; and we're not so stupid that we can only see the short term economical "benefits" of concreting over the environment. The fertile soil and the ecosystems that naturally supply us with clean air, water and food are valuable gifts that we've already destroyed too much of.

Please stop Bill 66.
