I am a boater and own a sailboat that has an onboard washroom, holding tank and sleeping facilities. Even so, I agree with all of the changes to the regulation except the prohibition of mooring or "camping" within 300 m of a developed shoreline. If I need to moor overnight somewhere, especially on Lake Ontario, it would be difficult to find a safe place that is more than 300 m from an undeveloped shoreline. I understand the concerns of lakefront homeowners, and would accept changes to the Regulation if they stipulated that "camping" within 300 m of a developed shoreline is acceptable for no more than 2 consecutive nights. This should take care of most situations where someone would require to shelter close to shore due to storms or bad weather, or even just to have a nice weekend. Waterfront homeowners do not own the water, and this change to the Regulation (not camping within 300 m of a developed shoreline) promotes the view that homeowner's rights extend beyond their shoreline, which they don't. Most of Ontario's lakes that are accessible by road are fully developed, and if we are to grow in population, we need to increase the access to these natural resources, not reduce them.
