I have been a supporter of the conservative party for a long time, and this single proposal would drive my vote away. Ontario parks are for Ontarians to enjoy the natural wonders of Ontario. Read more

As a nature lover, I am amazed how people in the government have become completely obsessed with following protocol and not public opinion. We have wonderful resources like Wasaga Beach Provincial Park and beautiful nature trails that are so important. Read more

Do not hand over/sell Wasaga Beach Provincial Park to the Town of Wasaga Beach. Such a transfer sets a dangerous precedent for public access to park land and for the protection of natural spaces and species in the province of Ontario! We find our public spaces have more and more usage. Read more

This proposal to transfer Beach Areas 1, 2, New Wasaga, Allenwood Beach, and Nancy Island out of the protection of the Provincial Parks and Conservation Reserves Act, 2006, and the Historical Parks Act, thrusts one of our most popular Provincial Parks into an uncertain future. Read more

I am very concerned that the sale of this land will be harmful to the endangered species the piping plover. The town of Wasaga beach will not care for the land, or the plovers the way the provincial parks do. Provincial parks need to remain in control of these beaches. Read more

Wasaga Beach Provincial Park beaches are more than just a nice spot to go swimming —they are vital ecosystems that support biodiversity and safeguard the future of species at risk. Read more

Protection of Ontario wildlife and habitat is an utmost priority and aids the Conservative government to gain support across a broad political base. Please consider the plovers and Wasaga beach. Their current status is at risk with the proposed changes. Read more

Handing over this land to the Town of Wasaga Beach is a death sentence to piping plovers in the province - habitat protections will be non-existent and development can go forward with no input from scientists or biologists. Read more

I am writing to state my opposition to the Ontario government’s plan to strip provincial park protection from key parts of Wasaga Beach Provincial Park, and to sell much of this land for “integration into the broader development of Destination Wasaga”. Read more
