The Ontario government needs to look to the future with a more eco-conscious and forward thinking approaches. If this Bill is to pass what guarentees do the "People of Ontario" have from the "Government of the People" that they will retain the integrity of the "Land of the People".

Your government did not campaign on a policy of carving up the Greenbelt, and in fact Ford promised to keep it intact during political`damage control' after a video of his back-room discussions with developers to carve it up was exposed on the news.

As an Ontario citizen, I do not approve of and request the removal of 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.
I disagree with any effort to reduce the protection of Greenbelt land as made possible in Bill 66. The protection for these areas (and others, such as Algonquin Park) has been hardwon. Much of the land is used for farming; I do think we need farms! Farmers tend to use the most fertile land.

I am expressing my concern with, and opposition to, portions of the legislation tabled as Bill 66. While described as the 'Restoring Ontario's Competitiveness Act', there are potentially dire threats to the health of Ontario citizens if Bill 66 is enacted as written.

I am vehemently opposed to Bill 66 as it clearly represents a serious threat to the quality and purity of the water we all drink, the air we all breath, in the Green Belt areas of Ontario.

What is this Ministry's definition of Environmental Protection? Where is the evidence that Bill 66 will protect source waters, the Greenbelt, Oak Ridges Moraine, Lake Simcoe, and other farm and natural areas?

I am a young professional living in Hamilton, and I care deeply about the Greenbelt, Lake Simcoe, the Oak Ridges Moraine and clean water. It is home to farmland, forests, watersheds and wetlands.
