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. The Greenbelt is extremely important to local residents and is irreplaceable. Read more

We cannot weaken environmental laws and regulations to "open" up the Greenbelt "for business". We need to protect this ecosystem for the future of both our agricultural industries and the future health and well-being of our children and grandchildren. Read more
