On behalf of my family,…

On behalf of my family, including grandchildren, I ask for the removal of schedule 10 of Bill 66 which allows municipalties to override provisions in the Greenbelt Act, Clean Water Act, Lake Simcoe Act, Oak Ridges Morraine Conservation Act and Great Lakes Protection Act. The Greenbelt Area is something I very much hope my grandchildren are able to enjoy. It's importance in providing green space to people in our already developed communities is huge, and if we allow it to be built on we will be doing future generations a great disservice. Once green space is gone, it can never be replaced. The importance of the watershed areas and great lakes to all of Ontario cannot be overstated. Only the government is in a position to protect these areas (and the drinking water for our communities, remembering the Walkerton disaster). I hope your government has the foresight to protect these vital resources for all Ontarians.
