Good morning. Please be advised that Council of the Corporation of the Town of Georgina considered Bill 66 and passed a motion strongly recommending that Schedule 10 of Bill 66 be immediately abandoned or withdrawn by the Ontario Government.

As Ontario resident I would like to see 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 to BE REMOVED.

The greenbelt should not be made "open for business."
"Competitiveness" does not to be "restored", Ontario will not "win" by this act.
This act should be renamed as: 'The Greedy Land Grab and Exploitation Act.'
That's all it is.
Like many people I know I am very concerned that the changes that are proposed by Bill 66 will allow development in areas that are currently protected as environmentally important. Development can never be undone.

Our planet is in urgent need of protection. Business interests cannot override or take precedence over the environment. That being said, the greenbelt must be preserved at all costs. It provides drinking water to much of the area north of Toronto. Aquifers are not infinite.

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.

This Bill is not clearly thought out and all of the implications identified. It will severely impact the opportunity for public input and does not allow for concerns and issues to be heard form Ontario taxpayers.

Bill 66 is completely against what myself and many people in the province of Ontario stand for. We expect a secure and healthy environment. This is not right to have certain municipal regulations that are already in place to protect our Greenbelt be able to be bypassed by this bill.

Ontario has a rich history of occupation that dates back more than 12,000 years. The archaeological assessments completed each year in advance of development help fill in the gaps in the story of our Province, Indigenous Peoples and more recent settlers. Archaeology gives a voice to many who have
