Hello, I'm writing to voice…

Hello,

I'm writing to voice my strong opposition to this proposal, Bill 66, Restoring Ontario's Competitiveness Act, 2018 and request that the Government of Ontario vote it down.

What good is economic development if it's not sustainable for the years to come? By allowing development opportunities to circumvent years of multi-governmental planning and policy decision-making and scientific research like what is reflected in the Clean Water Act, the Greenbelt Act, the Great Lake Protection Act, the Oak Ridges Moraine and Conservation Act, zoning by-laws, and other such important pieces of legislation and planning tools, the Government of Ontario would be jeopardizing the health and livelihood of the people of Ontario and our environment which we are so crucially dependent on.

We need clean water, we need agricultural land, we need clean air and we need to make progress in fighting climate change. The Government's shortsightedness and greed is putting my future and the future of generations to follow at risk by proposing this bill. We need a healthy environment in order for have a healthy population. Please do not take that away from us.
