I think it's absolutely insane we have to defend ourselves again when we already fought to get an environmental assessment. The dump is less than 1km from Dresden where a high school and elementary school are located.

I live within 500 m of the proposed waste management/landfill site. To say I am upset about the government possibly revoking the Full EA is an understatement. I understand we need landfills and recycling of this toxic material, but should it be happening that close to a thriving community?

Doug Ford's Bill 5 "Unleashing our Economy Act, 2025" will GUT Ontario's endangered species act removing protections for wildlife and the habitats they need to survive.

As a Dresden resident, I am appalled to hear of this application for York1 to not have to do a complete environmental assessment on their proposal to expand a DORMANT dump near Dresden that is right on the outskirts of our town.

Chatham-Lent already has a large landfill, and we do not need another especially less than 1km to our beautiful historic town of Dresden. Find another location.

This change to procedure appears to be deceitful and without due cause.
The circumstances requiring the environmental assessment have not changed, so the question remains why the direction to assess the risks have been quietly changed.

I am not sure why this proposal even happened
This site has not been used as a dump since 1980, and it was only used an incinerator waste at that time
The edge of York 1 property is only 200 metres from town of Dresden. New dumps are to be outside of 3.5 metres

As a resident of Dresden I am very much opposed to the York 1 project for a landfill on the North side of the town. I am also very concerned about Bill 5 and removal of EA for this project.

This proposal is WRONG. Everybody knows it. To remove the EA and have this company plan this landfill is ABSOLUTELY insane. This company says it is a recycling landfill but it is not. It will be a full dump. Garbage, garbage, and more garbage. All from the GTA.

This proposal is a danger to an entire town. Not just a few homes in the nearby vicinity, but an entire town stands to suffer dangerous health consequences from this.

This is our home, our strong community. We do not want someone else’s trash in our backyard, I mean would you? My family has purchased a home in this sweet town wanting to make our life here, only for york1 wanting to use it to dump your trash?

How can Bill 5 be passed when the Conservative govt stated an EA WOULD be done to protect Dresden and the contamination this dump will bring.
How scary it is that this can happen to a small town where a dump wasn’t even there before.
We don’t want this near our town
Stop !!!!!!!

This dump will impact our well that we use for our drinking as well as Molly Creek which runs into the Sydenham River. It is also way to close to the town of Dresden and should not get an okay to even be here as a dump! It will impact way to many people adversely.
While I can understand and appreciate the challenges that are being faced by the government today, as a citizen of Chatham-Kent, I can understand nor believe this proposal. 1. We don't want other peoples waste in our community, we feed those same people off the land we have here. 2.
