Subject: Ontario PC proposed Bill 66

Do politicians never learn from previous mistakes? Doug Ford’s proposed Bill 66 that reduces the checks and balances regarding Ontario’s farmland and greenbelt areas smacks of the same stupidity as the previous Liberal government’s Green Energy Act. The PC’s campaigned hard against Kathleen Wynn and Dalton McGuinty’s foray into renewable energy that was an economic disaster that accomplished nothing for the environment and was riddled with unintended consequences. Now Doug Ford and company have come up with this scheme that makes it easier for developers to expand urban sprawl into our natural resource that is equivalent to an ‘endangered species’. You can’t make more or replace greenbelt and farmland. Surely there are better and more efficient ways of creating opportunities for job creation and business enterprises within the massive urban land mass that now has spread across Ontario. Doug Ford do your due diligence, you can do better than this.
