I am calling as a concerned citizen and urge you to rethink Bill 23 today.
It is an attack on democracy — it takes power away from municipalities and communities.
It will bring irrevocable damage to the Greenbelt — which Premier promised to leave untouched. In the middle of a climate crisis, we cannot afford to be attacking wetlands, farmlands or our water.
Despite claims, there is no evidence this Bill will help the housing crisis — instead, it is set to benefit wealthy developers. We need real investment in affordable housing.
In my region, the elderly and young people are leaving in droves because they cannot afford the absolute glut of single family residences provided by developers. We need to rethink housing and include mixed-use, affordable housing options.
