Part of the proposed legislation is relevant to plans for expanding a long dormant dump site at 2983 Irish School Rd., located less than a kilometre from Dresden.

Keep your own garbage Toronto in your own green spaces as our waters do not need your toxic waste. Our great lakes are to important an your dump will just flow through our rivets to the lake. Please keep your own waste as no one out here wants it.
The government is letting major industrial projects—like a large mine in Northern Ontario and a waste disposal site in Chatham-Kent to bypass normal environmental assessment processes.

I do not think this proposal is in the best interests of our natural heritage and the plant and animal life involved. Urban sprawl is displacing the habitat of plants, animals, insects, birds, and others.

As a concerned member of the Dresden community, I respectfully but firmly urge you to reconsider the proposed amendment to your waste processing facility at 29831 and 29841 Irish School Road.

I strongly oppose the proposal to remove environmental assessment requirements for the York1 waste disposal site project through the Protect Ontario by Unleashing our Economy Act, 2025.

There are numerous red flags surrounding this proposal. The company involved has clear inconsistencies in its claims, troubling connections—including financial ties to the PC Party—and a history of misconduct, including charges for falsifying documents and misrepresenting data.

I want Bill 5 to be turned down. It affects the community I live in due to York1 wanting to build a dump less than a km from Dresden, right next to Molly's Creek which has many endangered species in it. And too close to town...

I oppose this proposal. Having an environmental assessment is paramount for this situation given the close proximity of the landfill to town. Standard guidelines for landfills is 3.5km from a community and this project is less than ONE km from a town with a population of 2700.

It is so sad that our province has come to this. The proposal for a dump in Dresden is outrageous. It is too close to our town, will compromise our water, will disrupt our highways and our historical reputation.

As a concerned Ontario resident, I am writing to strongly oppose the proposed landfill operation at 29831 Irish School Road, near Dresden, Ontario.

I strongly oppose the removal of environmental assessment requirements for this project. The location is close to the river and the environmental assessment requirements exist for a reason — to protect this river, the species that make it home, and the humans who live nearby.

I am terribly disappointed that the government has removed the EA requirements from the Dresden Landfill site. I hope that Doug Ford keeps his promise that if the people don’t want it it won’t happen.
The proposed landfill site that the government wishes to do is right at a core location in Dresden, near waterways and other residential people
Why aren’t landfill sites located in remote locations so that the impact on residential communities aren’t affected?
