I am concerned about the loss of conservation authority powers resulting from Bill 23.

I don’t believe any conservation lands should ever be sold for development; they are needed as habitat and for flood prevention. Therefore no new process for selling off Conservation Lands is needed.

Small municipalities do not have the capacity to take on all the work being done by conservation authorities.

The Bill will GUT the Green Standards many municipalities have put in place to make new buildings sustainable and energy efficient, with the goal of bringing down local emissions.
