I oppose Bill 5. I want strong environmental protections for not only our endangered species but our ecosystems. I oppose short cuts to industry with no public oversight. And I oppose overriding the law in special economic zones.

NO NO NO! Absolutely not. This has to be the lowest on the pole of corporate greed and this is a slippery slope. This fundamentally changes the protection laws and if this passes, where does it stop? I am completely against this. Please put a stop to it.

I am deeply concerned that protections for endangered species are being weakened by these interim changes and the proposed Species Conservation Act. Endangered species are the canaries in the gold mine that warn us we are in danger of sending ourselves extinct. Read more

This proposed bill is absolutely unacceptable at a time of global climate crisis, and in a country that is supposed to be actively acting towards reconciliation with our Indigenous peoples. Read more

I strongly oppose Bill 5, the Protect Ontario by Unleashing Our Economy Act. This legislation poses a serious threat to Ontario’s natural heritage, democratic processes and Indigenous rights.

I strongly oppose Bill 5. Our species need to be protected more than ever. No one should have the ability to be above the law. Bill 5 would be an absolute disgrace to our beautiful province. Do not move it forward.

I apposed bill 5. Protected green spaces need to remain protected. Endangered species need guaranteed protection. Once the land has been developed it will never be the same. Read more

I am vehemently opposed to this bill. It is incredibly shortsighted, selfish, and will result in irreparable damage. There is nothing more important than the environment - not the economy, people, etc. Nothing. Read more

We need to protect the habitat for our native species. These proposed changes seem designed to do less of that. Please reconsider and stick with the more stringent, current guidelines. Brett Read more

Bill 5 undermines the democratic process and is one the worst pieces of legislation Ontario has ever seen. Industries will just have to register in order to do what they like without clear conditions to prevent harms to species. Read more
