Comment
The stated goal of Bill 66 is to “stimulate business investment, create good jobs, and make Ontario more competitive by cutting unnecessary regulations that are inefficient, inflexible or out of date”. However, legislation aimed at boosting our economy should never trump regulations created to protect common resources such as groundwater and communities’ safe drinking water supplies. This legislation makes it apparent that the current Government of Ontario is prioritizing business interests over water security. Schedule 10 is unjustifiable, undemocratic, and should be immediately withdrawn. Please make immediate changes to this Bill to reflect the needs of our precious natural resources.
