“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.”
There are so many other ways to show that Ontario is open for business. Let’s think outside the box and look for future-facing options (like programs that attract businesses in renewable energy, AI or other emerging technologies)!

Ontario is not for sale.
I believe that Bill 66 needs heavy amendment. Removing the requirements for business and municipalities to no longer require environmental and archaeological assessments when building is going to have catastrophic effects long term.

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.
Please remove schedule 10 from Bill 66. Please do not weaken the Greenbelt. The establishing of the Greenbelt is an accomplishment Ontario should be proud of. Please do not undo the good work already done in protecting Ontario’s natural environment.

The greenbelt need to be left as it is. We have to protect what is left of nature. Looking at Bill 66 in more detail, I agree with many of its component, but the Greenbelt should not be part of the equation. Leave it alone.
“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.”
Please consider the damage that will be done if we don't respect the environmental laws in place for the Greenbelt.
If we disregard the source of our sustenance, we will soon find ourselves incapacitated by impoverishment.

The greenbelt should remain protected! It was protected for a reason. Short term gain with businesses should not over ride long term gain of keeping this pristine ecological land protected.

Schedule 10 of Bill 66 must be omitted. Premier Ford said he would protect the Greenbelt as part of his election platform. The public voted him in under this understanding. Schedule 10 removes most of the Greenbelt protection with only 'public consultation' offered as recourse.

If this Bill passes and would allow businesses to bypass established protection acts then I would hope that it would not be passed. Having a business with possible international ties and agenda come to an area do as they like with the resources there would be disasterous locally.

Bill 66 threatens to remove essential checks and balances in a number of areas. It threatens to relax provisions that protect the Greenbelt, a vital resource for the wellbeing of people and wildlife, that provides needed farmland and employment in the agricultural sector.

The green belt is not open for business. It is for the benefit of the people of Ontario and must remain as it is, to protect our wetlands and to maintain farms for foodcrops to grow.
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.
