I am a young person in Ontario. I am an environmental biochemist by training and am currently working towards my PhD. The loosening of environmental protection laws in Ontario would have irreparable consequences in the long term.

I am a resident of the Etobicoke region, born and raised, and I strongly oppose this bill. While development is a key priority it can go through our existing due process which works to preserve our city for generations to come.
I am deeply opposed to Bill 5 and strongly hope that it does not go through. Public consultations and regulations are important to prevent the misuse of our very valuable land.

I oppose bill 5. I want stronger environmental protections and the protection of endangered species. I oppose shortcuts for industry. I oppose overriding the law in special economic zones.
I am not in favour of this at all. The government needs to respect the laws and bylaws of all jurisdictions. We’ve already witnessed their disregard for the legally protected green space. This would allow them to do an end run on any number of things.

I am writing to express my profound opposition to Ontario's Bill 5, the "Protect Ontario by Unleashing our Economy Act." While the bill purports to expedite economic development, it poses significant risks to our environment and undermines essential environmental protections.

This bill will significantly weaken environmental protection in Ontario and allow development in sensitive and protected areas, including areas with endangered species.

This proposal would give this government the power to bypass critical environmental regulations to allow destruction of our precious nature and wildlife. It's not about strengthening the economy, there are other ways to do this without selling out to corporations.
This government should be deeply ashamed of themselves for the destruction of life they propose with bills like Bill 5. Environmental safeguards are not red tape for your development plans. Indigenous rights and communities are not red tape for your acquisition of more resources.

This is possibly the most poorly thought out Bill I have ever read. The entire focus is on providing benefits to private corporations and builders/developers at the expense of literally destroying our environment, animal habitats and eco systems.
