Hello Friends in Government,

I am hopeful that when considering Bill 66 that changes be made to ensure that Ontario's freshwater and green space is protected. While I understand the importance of people's need for jobs, I feel that there are other ways to provide Ontarians with employment that won't jeopardize the future of our drinking water, animal species and land that renew and reduce carbon in the atmosphere.

With such vast amounts of awareness efforts and scientific evidence that the impact/cost in the future of these decisions will be greater than the short term benefit. I realize that politics is often a short term view of economics, I believe this will cost much more and we will spend so much in legal fees, and penalties if we want to back out of any of this in the future... harming our economy and our deficit. please take out the parts of this bill (being able to overlook the clean water act, interfering with the greenbelt, and anything polluting our great lakes). Please think of your grand kids and the financial and environmental legacies you will be leaving them. This is not a good financial decisions (look at city bank's data on the cost of climate change... disasters costs the government millions!)
