I’m writing to express my concerns about Bill 5 and Ontario Heritage Act, Schedule 7 (Protect Ontario by Unleashing our Economy Act, 2025). The Act proposes changes that effectively would put us out of business. As an archaeologist, I know I have a weird job, so I’ll try to explain better.

As an archaeologist in this province for the last 12 years, I firmly disagree with the underlying notion of this Bill 5 that archaeological requirements are red tape. Good archaeology does not have to cause delays and should be viewed as an asset to any project.

Good Afternoon,
I am writing to express my deep concern and strong opposition to the proposal that would exempt certain properties from undergoing archaeological assessment.

I live in a community with many historical buildings, some of which have been illegally demolished by developers in the past years.

I oppose the changes to Bill 5 Schedule 7. I urge you to please not pass these changes as this is a massive problem from a cultural, emotional and indigenous perspective. Additionally, this will put hardworking individuals out of work.
Opposed! Culturally significant lands deserve protection from developers. Do better and find a way to develop respectfully and effectively. Lazy legislation.
I strongly oppose Bill 5, the Protect Ontario by Unleashing Our Economy Act. This legislation poses a serious threat to Ontario’s natural and human heritage, democratic processes and Indigenous rights.

Giving a minister the authority to forego archaeological investigations could lead to a dangerous abuse of power and loss of cultural heritage for Canadians and especially indigenous communities in Ontario.

The province is encouraged to listen to licensed archaeologists who work within the current system, and who have concrete suggestions on how to streamline processes.

STOP BILL 5. Premier Ford’s Bill 5 would give him and his Cabinet Trump-like powers. It would allow any person or business that he and his Cabinet choose to ignore any and every provincial or municipal law.
