Remove Schedule 10 from Bill 66. These regulations are in place in order to protect vital watershed and sensitive environmental areas. We have already destroyed or paved over some of the best farm-land in the world in Ontario by not protecting these vital areas.
If you really want to be open for business then don't destroy areas that create agricultural prosperity, and allow one of the largest cities in Canada and the economic engine of Ontario thrive. Factories and industry have no business in areas that are protected already for a reason. Allowing municipalities to over-ride environmental protections already in place in the vital watershed areas North and West of Toronto will be a disaster. Many studies have already been done proving that industrialization and development of these areas will lead to a dramatic degradation of these fragile areas, imperilling clean water and agriculture for everyone.
