I am concerned that the removal of regulations from construction will lead the the damaging of Ontario's heritage through the damage and destruction of archaeological sites. Once damaged, such sites cannot be recovered; this will lead to the erasure of aspects of Ontario's rich history. Archaeology allows us to expand and elucidate areas of history that may otherwise be obscured and forgotten. While planning for the future is essential, it should not come at the expense of understanding our past.

I am also not sure what the point of this section is, except to try to limit the access and understanding that workers have of their rights and place it in the control of their employers: "Stop requiring employers to post the Employment Standards Act (ESA) poster in the workplace, but retain the requirement that they provide the poster to employees." I don't know why you would want to do that?
