Comment
In addition to the proposed destruction of 15 different areas within the Greenbelt,
stripping power away from Conservation Authorities is clearly an assault on the environment.
These authorities have knowledge and on the ground experience to protect the eco-systems
and waterways within their jurisdictions. Under Bill 23 they no longer have the authority to
advise on, or prevent development on adjoining lands or territories under their
protection.
Why this senseless curtailment of Conservation Authorities when more than
ever, with climate change, we need their help and expertise??
These measures of Bill 23 were never necessary because there is enough land within
the GTA and GGH to construct affordable housing without adding to urban sprawl.
