Repealing of red tape is an honourable objective. Endangering Ontarians' health and undermining critical environmental protections in the process is unacceptable. Bill 66 threatens the Clean Water Act and repeals the Toxics Reduction Act. It will allow circumvention of Greenbelt protections. In short, what are you thinking?

Exempting developers from rules that are critical to protecting the health of Ontarians puts the short-term interests of private developers ahead of the longer-term interests of this province. How can you think that is the right thing to do? The Government of Ontario should have our health and safety as its main objective, not as something to put at risk.

I - and many others - oppose this legislation. We have a right to a healthy and safe environment. Your job is to ensure that.
