Comment on Proposed Amendments to the Ontario Heritage Act, Schedule 7 of the Protect Ontario by Unleashing our Economy Act, 2025
The proposed changes risk undermining reconciliation by allowing assessments to be skipped for certain development projects. While it is mentioned that sensitive sites might not be eligible for exemption, this wording doesn't inspire confidence. As Ontario Regional Chief Abram Benedict has emphasized in the linked statement, any development affecting First Nations' rights must have their free, prior, and informed consent. To respect these inherent and Treaty rights, sensitive sites must have clear, firm protections.
