Dear MPP, I am writing to…

Dear MPP,

I am writing to you in response to the recently introduced Bill 5, Protecting Ontario by Unleashing our Economy Act, 2025. As a concerned citizen, I am seeking your support in opposing this regressive and harmful bill that will speed up the destruction of critical habitat for endangered species, removes basic environmental rights, including rights to be informed and have a say, and fails to respect Indigenous peoples' rights, including those recognized in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP).

As your constituent, I have two urgent requests for you. Please:

1. SUPPORT the protection of nature, Indigenous rights, and public trust in government decision-making by calling for the withdrawal of Bill 5 in its entirety
2. SEEK AN EXTENSION of the comment periods for all Bill 5 related proposals posted on the Environmental Registry to allow for meaningful public particpation to occur. 

Sincerely, a Canadian citizen who wants the best for all of us while we work together with nature.
