I am writing to express my dismay about the recklessness of Bill 66. The regulations that it is proposing to repeal are essential to protecting the health and well being of the citizens of Ontario. Reliable access to clean drinking water, protection against the damaging effects of toxic chemicals and agricultural run-off, and the maintenance of greenspaces for both conservation purposes but also as buffers against catastrophic flooding re fundamental to all our lives and livelihoods in this province. Other measures in Bill 66 including the removal of restrictions on home-based daycare will put vulnerable populations at risk. I urge the reconsideration of this legislation so that evidence-based studies can inform more sound and ethical decision making.
The responsibility of a government is to care for the people, the land, and the future of this province.
