As an archaeologist this bill is not only risking my job but also (and most importantly) threatening to cause us to loose the ability to learn about our past while destroying that past so that there is no possible way to ever learn about it.

As an avid bird watcher and nature lover I feel ashamed to even have to protest this. Save our wetlands and forests for future generations. Not everything needs to be for profit.
Wholeheartedly disagree with the threat this bill poses to industries such as archaeology. With lesser requirements for permits there will be an active threat to sites that are only discovered due to construction.

The proposed bill will only enhance the ability of rich people pushing through their own agenda. The environmental protections cannot be weakened or watered down.
The Endangered Species Act does not need to be replaced! We need it now more than ever to ensure Developers go through the proper assessment process and follow the ensuing rules to protect the environment in question and the species that are supported in that environment. Bill 5 must be defeated!
It is appalling that conservatives don't understand the importance of conservation and are willing to gut this bill all in the name of profit.

I am against these changes.
Due diligence is necessarily complicated and time-consuming. Due diligence and protection of the environment is not unnecessary delays. Protecting housing, transit, and infrastructure long-term require protecting the environment.

I oppose bill 5. I want strong environmental protections. I oppose government fast tracking and removing obstacles that ensure species and lands are protected. Our environment and natural areas are far more important than highways or subdivisions.
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 am writing to strongly oppose Bill 5: the Protect Ontario by Unleashing Our Economy Act and its dangerous proposals, including the creation of Special Economic Zones, the weakening of Ontario’s endangered species protections, and the exemption of the Eagle’s Nest mine from an environmental review.

Bill 5 gives your government extreme new powers to ignore laws that protect the environment, public health, and Indigenous rights — without accountability. This is unacceptable.
Bill 5 undermines democracy, justice and freedom.
Oppose Bill 5!
