Enough is enough! Where is…

Enough is enough! Where is your commitment to Climate Change. It is not only the responsibility of individual taxpayers in Ontario but Government legislators (like you) have the responsibility to "lead" us in this direction.
Schedule 3 of Bill 257 illustrates a profound disregard for environmental protection and public consultation. Given the circumstances, it will be justly perceived as an attempt to frustrate and undermine the public’s constitutional right to seek judicial review of unlawful government decisions. Your government’s continued positive characterization of its use of MZOs as a means to support strong communities and a clean and healthy environment is misleading. On the contrary, in many, if not most cases, it has been using MZOs to authorize developments that pose a direct and immediate threat to the benefits provided by Ontario’s natural areas and farmland.

These essential benefits include healthy food, clean water, improved air quality, flood and erosion mitigation, habitats for wildlife, vital recreational space, economic opportunities and more.

For all the reasons listed above, we ask that you remove Schedule 3 from Bill 257 and stop playing games with our environment. Thank you for your consideration.
