I find so many issues with this bill. First of all, the bill summary states that they want to cut "unnecessary regulations". Why are regulations unnecessary? Note that many researchers have spent years developing methodology and careful data collection to put these regulations in place. How could a we just decide that those careful research projects are unnecessary? After all, government funds a lot of these projects because they found these regulations necessary at some point.
This bill can have big negative impacts on the biodiversity and the habitats in the area. Nature cannot argue back at the decisions made by this bill. That is why policies like the Provincial Policy Statement are in place. Without these, what is to stop us from overlooking environmental impacts for economical benefits? It seems as if this bill is taking us backwards. I do not need to remind the people of many human disasters that occurred due to the lack of regulations. We need to co-exist with the environment rather than trying to destroy it for money. We are extracting every bit we can from the environment at a rate that the environment cannot regenerate on. Human populations are growing at a fast rate, so I understand that we will need more landmass to survive. However, this can quickly turn into a slippery slope where we overlook the harm on the environment for the sake of our development. We will be known as the generation that decided human economy is more important than the environment we depend on.
