Bill 66 is not in the public interest at all. It is the responsibility of all levels of government to protect the environment for future generations.

I am concerned about the proposed changes to the Planning Act that would allow municipalities to make a great number of decisions without oversight at the provincial level, and without needing to notify the public or get input from the public.

I wish to comment on the proposed changes to the Employment Standards Act.
First, I cannot see any cost saving to not requiring employers to post the Employment Standards poster in the workplace.

Red tape is not made up of rules to keep our environment safe and clean, it is meaningless repetitive form filling, sure combine the information needed for the project, make the forms very clear and identify the information needed to make sure you are not going to damage the environment, and if you

This bill is irresponsible to anyone who needs clean drinking water. I've lived through the Walkerton e-coli scare and that was nothing compared to the devastation this bill could wreak. The costs in lives will far outweigh the dollars.
The Council of the Town of Collingwood have carefully reviewed and considered the contents of Schedule 10 of Bill 66, Restoring Ontario’s Competiveness Act, 2018, which was read for a first time in December.

The proposed changes in this bill, Bill 66 put the public at risk. What the Bill refers to as “red tape and burdensome regulations” have been put into place to protect public health, safety, well-being and resilience. Remember Walkerton! This omnibus bill is undemocratic.

Section 10 of Bill 66 is unnecessary, duplicates existing powers, suspends hundreds of policies, is harmful to environmental and public health, threatens the future of sound planning, and subverts democracy in Ontario.
We urge you to withdraw Section 10 of Bill 66.

Please 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.

Please 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 that Bill 66 will reduce or eliminate the protection of environmental and agricultural land protected by the Greenbelt and the Oak Ridges Moraine. There is no correlation between "competitiveness" and the protection of sensitive and important environmental lands.

I do not suppprt Bill 66. I think it is harmful to farmland and the environment. I think it endangers natural resources that once used for other purposes cannot be returned to farmland.
