It is my opinion that this bill does not represent current and future citizens of Ontario, but rather is intended to help businesses at the expense of the public. I encourage you to remove Schedule 10 from Bill 66 because it allows municipalities to override provisions in the Clean Water Act, Greenbelt Act, Lake Simcoe Act, Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Act and Great Lakes Protection Act. This means that damage will be done to important natural infrastructure that will cost all of us financially and in terms of air and water quality for many years to come.

These protections are in place for a reason and that reason was that businesses and individuals were degrading this natural infrastructure for short term gain.
