This would be disastrous for Ontario. It seems to be coming straight from developers mouths, as they would be the only ones benefitting. PSWs are deemed provincially significant for a reason. Lire davantage

You cannot destroy natural wetlands in order to build more housing complexes. The earth depends on everyrhingnwe have and the more that is cut down and drowned out the harder it is for everyone and everything to survive. Tear down an old building and build there. Lire davantage

Put back the environmental protections, the floodplains protect the buildings as much as the wildlife itself. This is short-term housing and a flood risk, nobody would be able to afford insurance to live in these zones.

Reducing protection for wetlands is an atrocious proposal. Southern Ontario has lost over 70% of wetlands which protect against floods, filter our water. Homes built in wetland areas suffer from flooding and unstable foundations. Lire davantage

The revisions proposed to the Ontario Wetland Evaluation System significantly weaken the criteria for establishing (and/or re-evaluating) Ontario's wetlands. In spite of the need for housing, the province must maintain its ecological protections. Lire davantage

We all need to protect our wetlands and safeguard them and the variety of species who inhabit them. I am against the proposed changes and I urge the Ford government to reconsider these proposed changes in light of the damage they will do.

As a wetland hydrologist for over 30 years I can say without a doubt that this proposal is moving back 50 years in planning and scientific understanding. This is NOT based on science. This is a farce and people will die because of this policy which is on brand for this government. Lire davantage

I am troubled that these proposals will result in the loss of wetlands in Ontario. First according to the report Back to Basics by Dianne Saxe over 75% of wetlands have been destroyed and there is a waitlist of over 200 years to properly evaluate existing wetlands. Lire davantage

Not mentioned are the non-evaluated wetland mapping and boundaries. These are usually incorrect, mapped boundaries too far from an actual wetland or no wetland exists at all. Lire davantage

The "Proposed Updates to the Ontario Wetland Evaluation System" are poorly thought out and should be scrapped. The Updates, as presently worded, would include: * Wetland units that are part of a Provincially Significant Wetland (PSW) complex can be re- Lire davantage

Wetlands are an ecosystem that fully pays back in ecosystem services by flood control, filtering of pollutants and hosting high biodiversity. I strongly oppose the "Proposed Updates to the Ontario Wetland Evaluation System." There are many concerns that I have including: Lire davantage

I don't understand how doing nothing to mitigate the effects of climate change and the loss of biodiversity through protecting wetlands, forests and agricultural land has become the approach for "conservative" governments like yours. Surely this should not be a partisan issue. Lire davantage

This is not the answer to affordable housing. Now, more than ever, we must protect our natural resources. We can't fast easy decisions that will benefit us momentarily in the present and devastate us in the long run. Climate change is here, but we can still stop it from getting dramatically worse.

I do not agree with the proposed changes. We are in a climate crisis and need to preserve our natural areas. Build your new units on abandoned land from old plazas and parking lots. Tear down old buildings and build new units on top. Lire davantage

I live in the municipality of whitestone. I contacted mnrf in parry sound in 2000 about identified wetlands. I was told they had not been evaluated. So if not evaluated -how does one protect them? Lire davantage

The Ontario government recently introduced the More Homes Built Faster 2022 Act (Bill 23) claiming that it will be a new solution to the housing crisis in Ontario. However, if this Bill is passed in its current form, it will have devastating impacts on Ontario's ecosystems. Lire davantage

This is absolutely the worst environmental move. We need housing, yes, but it's an affordability issue more than anything. We CANNOT continuously pull back on environmental protections when we are already facing climate crisis and severe decrease in our wildlife populations. This is not your land. Lire davantage
