This would be a truly shocking breach of trust if this bill is allowed to pass. To knowingly do harm to the environment and more in the province where you are simply an elected caretaker is a gross misuse of the office of premier. At what point does this unethical behaviour cease?

You can’t develop landfills with garbage from a major city, directly adjacent to a small town, on precious farmland without harming endangered species, causing traffic and safety concerns and risk to the vitality of these towns and their children. I oppose this proposal
I vehemently oppose this act. It is a power grab and is attempting to take away Indigenous rights. The people of Ontario DO NOT support the special economic zones act. It will endanger already vulnerable species and ruin habitats for Ontario’s wildlife.

This is an incredibly harmful, short-sighted and misinformed bill. Doug Ford needs to recognize that destroying sensitive environmental systems for the sake of more suburbs and commercial development in siloed areas to make a quick buck is not economic development.

I am a life long citizen of Ontario for 41 years and I am against this bill in its entirety. This bill would create an Ontario I don’t want to be a part of.

One that will pollute our waterways, kill an endangered species and put our entire town and the people in it in harms way.

STOP Bill 5. It is utterly disastrous and short-sighted for the Ford government to put forward a bill that weakens environmental protection at a time when we are racing towards a climate crisis.

I oppose Bill 5 as it undermines essential environmental safeguards and regulatory oversight by enabling Special Economic Zones to bypass existing environmental assessment processes.

This bill is rolling back environmental protections so Doug Ford can what? Build another spa? Why are endangered species protections being stripped? This is beyond unacceptable and this bill should not be allowed to pass.
opposing this regressive and harmful bill that will speed up the destruction of critical habitat for endangered species, removes basic environmental rights, including rights to be informed and have a say, and fails to respect Indigenous peoples' rights, including those recognized in the United Natio
