I am strongly opposed to Bill 66. Planning reviews and enforcement of environmental protection are not costs that can reasonably be considered. Related savings would be short-term and amount to greater costs in the long run. Ontario would become less attractive to prospective residents if green space is reduced. In the long run that also reduces business opportunities. Being casual about clean water (remember Harris) is also costly in the long run. We need less bottled water, not more, and fewer clean-water advisories.
What happened to the Green Belt planning that attracted international praise in the past?
