The exemptions in Schedule 10 of Bill 66 threaten to undermine the necessary overarching regulatory framework that ensures municipal decisions adhere to basic standards of environmental protection, to ensure the health of the wider environment in the province.

I want to express my firm opposition to Schedule 10 of Bill 66, which introduces “open-for-business by-laws” that would circumvent many of the requirements under several laws to ensure fair, consistent and transparent public engagement in land use decisions and protection of water, natural heritage

Remove Schedule 10 from Bill 66, which allows municipalities to override provisions in the Greenbelt Act, Clean Water Act, Lake Simcoe Act, Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Act and Great Lakes Protection Act.

I am very concerned about some of the proposed changes and the vagueness of the wording of the proposed bill 66 information available on the ERO for review.

I believe that Bill 66 must be stopped. Bill 66 puts the drinking water of millions of Ontarians at risk by allowing industry and development to bypass the Clean Water Act and other water protection acts.

I strongly object to Bill 66. Our drinking water, farmlands and green “belts” are crucial to a successful future. I am extremely concerned about lack of protection from development.
I am writing because I care deeply for the Greenbelt and water of this beautiful province. When I heard about this Bill I was deeply disturbed.

Water quality must be monitored and regulated as Ontario's highest priority. we don't want more people dying as in the past as a result of government neglect.

The overtime stuff is bogus. Employers already screw over employees like crazy, I'd rather there be more regulations in place than remove what few we have. It really feels like we are heading towards a sweatshop employer culture in the name of competitiveness - it's not worth it.

Please do not destroy our green space. This land and water is invaluable for all generations and if it is destroyed it will be gone forever. It is not necessary.

“Remove Schedule 10 from Bill 66, which allows municipalities to override provisions in the Greenbelt Act, Clean Water Act, Lake Simcoe Act, Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Act and Great Lakes Protection Act.”
Bill 66, Restoring Ontario's Competitiveness Act breathes fresh air into the Dark Ages mentality held by the Town of Halton Hills since I have become a resident here over the past three and a half decades.

We worked hard to install legislative provisions to protect and manage Canada's vast resources
Bill 66 threatens many of these acts to reverse the safeguards put in place

I do not support Bill 66. There is not much of what Doug Ford is doing, that I supoort. Whatever is decided, the environment and our farms, greenspace, MUST be a priority. What good is propserity if healthcare costs go up because of poor air, water and food quality?

After looking at Bill 66, I am opposed to it being passed. It's clear that there will be great ecological harm from this bill with wetlands, farmland and woodlands being negatively impacted from the loss of protection. Protections over the deinking water for Ontario citizens will be taken away.

Bill 66 is a direct affront to the citizens of Ontario. Doug Ford made a pledge in May 2018 that the Green Belt areas would be not be subject to development. Now that Doug Ford is Premier of the Government of Ontario, I expect that pledge to be honoured.
