The current Bill does terrible damage. There are better ways to ensure that more homes are built in Ontario.
I object to three very significant features of this bill.
1. It removes heritage protection over built property.
2. It removes the protection over environmentally sensitive areas.
3. It expands Ottawa's urban boundary thereby encouraging urban sprawl.
None of these elements are necessary to achieve the Bill's purpose of building more homes. They will undermine our quality of life and simply reward property speculators and developers. This legislation should not be adopted in its current form. It needs to be radically amended.
