Bill 5 does many things, but protecting Ontario isn’t one of them. What it does is get rid of the Endangered Species Act, bypass regulations in place to protect the environment and people from, removes consultations with Indigenous groups, and gives priority to “preferred” companies. Translation - Doug ford loyalists can make more money. Basically, another Greenbelt scandal but with more damage.

Playing of people’s fears of damage the US and Trump could do to pass harmful legislation is a new low.
