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.
For all obvious reasons, remove Schedule 10 from Bill 66, the Greenbelt Act, Clean Water Act, Lake Simcoe Act, Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Act and Great Lakes Protection Act are all in place for a reason, and the vast majority of people in this province want them to stay in place.
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.

As humanity spreads throughout our countryside, we, as a society, must maintain open and natural spaces for our well-being and the protection of wildlife. Certain aspects of our lives do not have dollar signs associated with their value.

Acceptance of any part of this Bill 66, Restoring Ontario's Competitiveness Act, 2018 will put Ontario, its workers, and its environment back in the 1900's.

The title of the bill is a perfect example of Orwellian doublethink. We are to make the province more competitive by reducing our ability to provide environmental protection.

It is absolutely ridiculous to consider developing the Greenbelt. It took a lot of effort to create the Greenbelt and it unfathomable for this government to undo all of that work. Do not do it.
I strongly urge the government to remove section 10 and any other portions of the bill which allows municipalities to ignore the green belt safe guards and environmental and clean water regs and restrictions.

We must use our resources wisely and consider future generations. We must not destroy our land, our water, our heritage for future generations, in the name of unsustainable growth.

The proposed legislation on green belt reduction is not required.
Green belt around Toronto must be protected.It is totally irresponsible for the Provincial govt to make it easier for regions to take away green belto promote more warehouses.
I am not at all in support of Bill 66. It is a totally unnecessary bill. There is a lot of land that is available for development at the present time without this bill. There are too many municipalities where money still talks from developers and improper development will occur.

I am writing out of concern for the Ontario Government to protect the Greenbelt and therefore introduce a new Bill 66 that stops the attacks on the Greenbelt, Oak Ridge’s Moraine, Lake Simcoe, Source Water Protection Areas and other important protected farm and natural areas to development.

Please do not move forward with this disastrous bill. The Green Belt is not filled with red tape. It is filled with essential farm land, needed farmers and an incredible wealth of wildlife that we cannot afford to lose.

Destroying the Greenbelt is not good governance.
We are utterly dependant on the environment and must value the incredible diversity that has been protected since it's creation.

Remove Schedule 10 entirely. The existing restrictions and protections are not "red tape that stunt development" they are essential regulations to maintain a healthy environment and to protect certain species at risk. I want the green belt to remain green and not turn brown.
