I strongly oppose Bill 66 for a number of reasons.
1) I am disturbed that there is no way for citizens to appeal open-for-business by-laws to the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal.
2) At a time of mass extinction of animals, it is pure folly to give municipalities the power, without sufficient accountability, to circumvent established environmental protection laws through open-for-business by-laws.
3) Economically, the Greenbelt is a great asset to our communities through things such as tourism and farmland.
