Re: Bill 66
This appears to be an "omnibus" bill so beloved of governments now - which allows them to mash together significant changes to disparate legislation - a process that "streamlines" government action and retards any meaningful criticism from those affected.
In the summary provided there seem to be a number of proposals that will adversely affect the health and safety of employees, that enable corporations to abandon transparency and accountability, - in the name of Opening Ontario for Business.
Being open for business IS NOT a license to abuse employees, to trample over environmental protections that foster a healthier provincial landsacape, water, and air. Being open for business IS NOT an excuse to expose vulnerable families and children to unsafe, unregulated child care. Doing so is a recipe for disaster that will taint Ontario's reputation for generations to come - not to mention the abuses and deaths that this lack of oversight is likely to cause.
Throughout this omnibus bill there is utterly callous disregard for the consequences to ordinary (as opposed to privileged, wealthy and powerful elite) people trying to make a decent (financially and morally) living in this province.
I am deeply angered by the mind set guiding this government. It is hateful, selfish, self serving, and corrupt.
