I am writing because I am…

I am writing because I am extremely concerned about the proposed Highway 413.

This mega-highway through southern Ontario’s Greenbelt will destroy forests and wetlands and imperil precious farmland. It threatens to extirpate the redside dace, a fish listed as endangered under the federal Species at Risk Act. It will incentivize car travel, jeopardizing Canada’s ability to meet its climate targets.

Above all, I am concerned that if mega-highways can be built through greenbelts, no forest in Canada is safe.

I strongly oppose Highway 413 and urge you to do everything in your power to stop this destructive project.
