Please delete Schedule 10 from Bill 66.

Municipalities should not be allowed to override provisions in the Greenbelt Act, Clean Water Act, Lake Simcoe Act, Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Act, and the Great Lakes Protection Act. These acts were put in place after study and consideration by smart people. These acts are not out of date nor are they ineffective.

Municipalities are a 'creature' of the Province. They do not necessarily have the best interest of the Province in mind when making decisions. It is imperative that Ontario asserts it's constitutional right to protect the air land and water in the Province on behalf of all Ontarians.

Development and economic growth are critically important. It does not take ingenuity, creativity, and vision to cancel well thought out regulations to spur growth.

Show us that you have the skills and vision to grow our economy using 21st-century thinking. Let's learn from our past. And please stop leading us into the last century.
