Leave endangered species AND their habitat alone. If you want to repeal something, repeal the Pitbull Ban that you promised to repeal YEARS AGO and have yet to do anything about it - that you promised. YOURE WASTING TAXPAYERS MONEY on this ban.
I am absolutely opposed to the Ford Government's blatant attempt to circumvent environmental protections of remaining slivers of natural spaces in Ontario. With wildlife in drastic decline, air quality decreasing, and a drastic increase in flooding, we need to save our wild spaces.

I am writing to express my strong opposition to Bill 5, the Protect Ontario by Unleashing our Economy Act, 2025. This legislation poses a significant threat to Ontario's environment and undermines the rights of Indigenous communities.

If this goes through this will become a huge threat to any natural spaces and animals and species that we have. We are slowly losing space for other animals to have their own homes out of selfishness. Animals and plants and endangered species deserve more land than they have now.

I am vehemently opposed to the omnibus Bill 5 act. We are not America and I for one strenuously object to what Doug Ford and his government are doing - taking us in the direction the US government is going while pretending to be a loyal Canadian secretly undermining Canada and what it stands for.

This Bill should not be passed. Once our farmlands and environmentally sensitive areas are gone, they're gone. You would be taking away the voice of the people- very Trump-like!

No, full stop, absolutely not. Nothing is more critical to the economy than a healthy natural environment. We are experiencing extreme weather events, drought, and extreme heat because of the severe loss of tree canopy in Southern Ontario, and the world.

Faster permitting does not equal better permitting. Suspending provincial laws and bylaws that were set up in order to protect our environment and ensure proper compliance is a ridiculous decision and will have horrible consequences. There are serious questions about the rule of law.

This shameful omnibus Bill 5 undermines the democratic process including bypassing the legislature and the judicial system in Ontario and is a disaster for the environment. It is deliberately complex to confuse the general public and violates our fundamental rights.

I absolutely oppose any roll back or over reach if our environmental protection laws.
If anything I think they should be re evaluated and increased.
We are a wonderful nation full of bright, resourceful and intelligent people.

This sounds like a workaround that will not benefit our environment. Policies and procedures provide transparency, and are in place for that reason.
In short, no.

As it is written, Bill 5 aims to unlock the economic potential of Ontario at the cost of Ontario.
It would allow for developments and projects to proceed in a manner that violates the foundation of our rights as residents of this province.

I am writing to express strong opposition to the proposed Special Economic Zones Act, 2025, which would allow the Ontario government to designate areas where projects could proceed under simplified rules, faster approvals, and a one-window access system.

Rules are in place for a reason, to protect our environment and the people of Ontario. This is a reckless bill with the sole purpose of bypassing protection laws.

Separate and independent non government entities should provide check and balance to ensure environmental viability. Please use prioritize existing urban infrastructure for housing and civil services instead of bulldozing over conservation areas. We are losing too many.
