Do not move forward with Bill 66. Bill 66 would destroy all of the hard work the citizens of Ontario have put into protecting, conserving and restoring the natural lands of our province.

I am writing to tell you how horrible I believe this bill to be. What this bill is proposing will put so many environments and people at risk. This risks clean water sources, heritage sites, farmland and environmentally protected green spaces among other things.

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.

It is disgusting, shameful that this government has decided that placating developers is more important than sustainable agriculture, environmental protection, and clean drinking water.

I am a farmer living in the current Greenbelt area north of the Greater Toronto Area. I do not see the Greenbelt as “red tape” preventing development from this region; it is a crucial way to protect prime agricultural land from urban sprawl.

We need to protect our water resources and green spaces. Remember Walkerton!
This is a terrible Bill for more reasons than I can go into in this small space. It is undoing in one stroke what we -- the citizens -- have worked so hard to achieve. What we need is a Bill to *reduce* urban sprawl, not increase it. We need Bills to *reduce* our emissions, not increase them.

NO! to proposed Bill 66! It weakens environmental protection. The Ford government doesn't get it: a healthy strong environment is economically profitable!! DO NOT WEAKEN OUR PROTECTIVE LAWS!! Please DO NOT IMPLEMENT BILL 66.
Touching the Greenbelt for any reason, is not an acceptable answer.
This is not what you were elected for and doing things behind closed doors will not win the PEOPLE OF ONTARIO's support. This is dirty underhanded politicking. Only giving a voice to friends and big business.

Please 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, 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.”
It is my view that the aspects of Bill 66 that include and affect any and all possible development in Ontario's Greenbelt MUST BE EXCLUDED before it is allowed to proceed.

I do not agree with carving up the Greenbelt with development of factories and subdivisions.
We must recognize the value and necessity of having and protecting the natural environment. The health of humans and the planet is at stake.
