Bill 66 is wrong by allowing the the greenbelt and other protected spaces to be opened for big business, just for ford to pad his pockets. This sets a terrible example, has the government learned nothing from the Walkerton Tragedy. Read more

Bill 66 should be radically amended to protect the Green Belt, protect clean drinking water, ensure our water shed protects wildlife and plant life, increase the penalties for air pollution, and lower the levels acceptable for air pollution. Read more

Bill 66 is a horrible piece of legislation! It will put 2 million acres of natural areas, habitats and wetlands at risk of development. Not only will it put many animal species at risk, it will greatly threaten our drinking water with increased exposure to toxic chemicals. Read more

This piece of legislation is so drafted as to grant companies the ability to freely pollute the environment and disregard the rules and regulations put in place for the protection of our air and water. May I remind you of the Walkerton water crisis. Read more

Green space and the green belt is important for our mental and physical health. We should not be allowing new developments on this land that compromise our water and the habitat of the wild animals that live there. There is enough other land available for developers. Read more

I am alarmed by the sweeping new powers that will be granted to municipalities if Omnibus Bill 66 is passed. While many sections include disturbing changes with impact across all sectors, I am most opposed to Schedule 10 for two significant reasons. Read more

Greenbelt exist for a reason. They protect the land, animals and plants that call that area home. They protect fragile ecosystems and ensure that our children will have a future! Building on these lands destroys so much more than can be gained. This is permanent and irreversible. Read more

I find it hard to believe this Trump like Bill is here in Ontario! If I wanted to live in a dictatorship I would move to China or Russia. I do not believe in business first even as a past business owner and having worked in broker and bank organizations. Read more

The Oak Ridges Moraine has been around way longer than any of us; to create a development-free zone on it makes so much sense, both from a recreational perspective - city people need somewhere to go blow of steam in some way - and a preservation perspective where new generations understand that ther Read more

Please don’t pass this bill - Ford campaigned wanting to destroy the Greenbelt, and backed off when public outcry forced him to. The Greenbelt is vital for our survival. It shouldn’t go to the highest corporate bidder. The piblic outcry isn’t any less angry than it was during the campaign. Read more

I urge you to please remove Schedule 10 from Bill 66, allowing the overriding of provisions in the Greenbelt Act, Clean Water Act, Lake Simcoe Act, Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Act and Great Lakes Protection Act. Please do not allow this barbarian to destroy our province.
