I am a humble Ontario…

I am a humble Ontario resident with a large family. Recently the there has been a bill sent to and passed it first reading, this bill is Bill-66.

Upon reviewing the bill as an Ontario resident I am greatly concerned with the implications it may impose including an environmental impact that we as Ontarian have been working to reverse so that our children and their children’s children have a beautiful province to call home like I have as well as so many before me.

The green belt is not “just useless farmland” as it has been described as. What it is, is an environmental buffer that aides in cleaning the air we all breath. It is especially necessary with the constant expansion of the McDonald-Cartier otherwise known as the 401. A highway who’s traffic is seconded only by Los Angeles; with out the green belt we may as well start to install oxygen masks at phone booths styled stalls like a comercial once aired in the 80’s suggested was our future.

I realize that attracting new business is vital to the growth of our glorious Province, l also realize that clean water and air are even more important as they are necessity’s to living.

Our Province and our country will absolutely benefit from increased businesses on an economic platform however our province will suffer greatly if we ignore the health of our environment.
