“Remove Schedule 10 from Bill 66, which allows municipalities to override provisions in the Greenbelt Act, Clean Water Act, Lake Simcoe Act, Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Act and Great Lakes Protection Act.” Ford did not run on a platform to destroy the Greenbelt and backed off this plan because of so much opposition. So now it's back in the planning stages - this when we know how devastating such development will be to our greenbelt and other conservation areas. Climate warming is real; at the cost to our future health and safety we do not need to destroy these areas. Money and business isn't everything. We need to care for our province, not tear it up. I am also alarmed that regulations that were put in place after the horror of Walkerton are being weakened if not completely removed. I think there will be blood on the hands of this government if they continue to degrade, disrespect and destroy safeguards that are in place.
