Remove schedule 10 from Bill 66, which allows municipalities to override provisions in the Greenbelt Act, Clean Water Act, Lake Simcoe Act, Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Act and Great Lakes Protection Act.
Remove Schedule 10 from Bill 66. It would be utterly irresponsible to allow municipalities to override provisions in the Greenbelt Act, Clean Water Act, Lake Simcoe Act, Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Act and Great Lakes Protection Act.

I am against any law that reduces greenspace and endangers our environment, its water or animal life. I have fought a long time to keep the land from being paved.

I am all for streamlining and cutting out administrative waste and duplication etc. etc. however I am very much against allowing cuts to our environmental regulations. Environment will become more and more urgent as the decades proceed.

In consideration of the proposed amendments, Bill 66 we assessed for implications to public and environmental health. We are apprehensive of unintended negative consequences which may arise from the implementation of this bill.

Keep your grubby fingers off of our greenbelt.
And try, for crying out loud, to remember Walkerton.
You seem to have no idea what the purpose of government is.
Hint: it's not to help Doug and his cronies get rich.
We grew up in Toronto and are dismayed to see the unbridled growth of the area surrounding it. Farmland has made way for housing developments. Accessing clean water has become a problem due to overusage by bottling companies and by unbridled development. What’s next?

The Oak Ridges Moraine is a protected green space that we value and have fought hard to save. There are many places in Ontario that are "open for business" that did not require use of environmentally protected lands. Let's not forget that Doug Ford promised not to touch the Greenbelt!
I do not think this proposal should pass. Making Ontario competitive at the expense of the health of the environment and the health of the people of Ontario is a high price to pay for something that will only benefit a few.

I'm not in favour of Bill 66. I believe such omnibus bills often hide changes that many people would not agree with. In particular I believe Bill 66 opens the door to unwise, environmentally harmful development, especially of greenbelt lands and those in sensitive areas, in favour of developers.

Please remove schedule 10 from Bill 66, which allows municipalities to override provisions in the Greenbelt Act, the Clean Water Act, the Lake Simcoe and Oak Ridges Morraine Conservation Act and Great Lakes Protection Act.
We are not in favour of any part of Bill 66.
As a former retail Pharmacist, I favour reducing bureaucracy, taxes and making guidelines more efficient and less costly, but, these issues need to be addressed specifically and not in an omnibus bill.

I don’t want the Greenbelt - home to 5,500 farms, 78 species at risk and 102 million tonnes of carbon storage - carved up with factories and subdivisions.

2. Town of Mono (Dufferin County) does not support all matters in omnibus Bill 66 that relinquish collective provisions that would allow any Open-For-Business Bylaw (OFB-ZBL) to circumvent existing Provincial legislative provisions and existing Provincial Plan policy provisions enacted and approved

I am completely opposed to Schedule 10 of Bill 66 which would potentially open up the Greenbelt to development and would also jeopardize our water supply with development. Studies show that there is enough land available for housing and employment until at least 2041.

I do not support Bill 66 and, in particular, Schedules 5 and 10. I am very concerned that Bill 66 will have negative consequences for the environment, drinking water, air and land pollution, farmland, human health, and democracy.

I think the greenbelt needs to be protected. We only have one environment and it is our duty to maintain it for future generations.
The green belt is home to farms that produce our food, this is important and should be protected from developers.
