I oppose Bill 5. I want stronger environmental protections and the protection of endangered species. I oppose shortcuts for industry. I do not support overriding the law in special economic zones.

As a resident of Ontario I oppose Bill 5. I want strong environmental protections. I oppose short cuts for industry. I oppose overriding the law in special economic zones.

I oppose bill 5. I want stronger environmental protections, and I strongly oppose shortcuts for industry with no public oversight in favour of "economic zones".
Protecting the environment and endangered species must continue to take precedence over rapid development. As a resident of Caledon, I highly value the natural environment and proximity to abundant trails and wildlife. That adds tremendous value to our region and our quality of life.

I am completely opposed to this Bill, which destroys environmental protections, contravenes the rule of law, and allows for industry shortcuts without public oversight and consultation. This is completely undemocratic and harmful for the environment and Indigenous rights.
