While I think Bill 23 is…

While I think Bill 23 is well-meaning, I believe that it runs roughshod over municipalities and conservation authorities, as well as existing legislation such as the Ontario Heritage Act. It will also introduce negative externalities to these bodies such as the loss of developers' fees and weaker urban planning standards.

In order to introduce an acceptable bill that builds more homes, faster, the Ontario government must find a way to increase efficiencies throughout the whole planning/approval/development/construction process, rather than compromise the standards and quality of life Ontarians and Ontario deserve. We don't want quick and dirty development; we want better and faster.
