I am deeply concerned about the introduction of this bill which will undermine any environmental progress we have made in this province and will take precedence over municipal officials plans.

There are many industries in our province which produce toxic substances. We need to hold these businesses accountable and ensure that they do not threaten the health and safety of our citizens in all of our communities. This legislation would roll back accountability in this area and lead to further pollution in our environment.

This legislation threatens farmland, wetlands, and habitat for species at risk across Ontario. It puts our greenbelt at risk and threatens the quality of our drinking water.

It will undermine PPS policies supporting public and accessible transportation, affordable housing, green infrastructure, and climate resiliency. It will also undermine the democratic and transparent process of planning in our communities.

I strongly oppose this legislation and ask this government to withdraw this legislation.
