Your proposal is misguided and misleading. It will not provide housing for those in greatest need. All it will do is enrich developers and degrade the environment.

New homes complement our provincial heritage when sensitive 'repurposing' instead of destruction is encouraged. All benefit... people get housing, fewer building materials are used and our history, which grounds us, is still a part of our lives.

The changes proposed to the Ontario Heritage Act through Bill 23 are done so under the guise of creating affordable and attainable housing. Not only will these changes not accomplish this, the proposed changes clearly threaten to reduce our EXISTING inventory of strong, long lasting buildings.

The younger generation is begging for you to find better ways to solve the housing problem in Ontario. We are suggesting you find ways that don’t affect valuable lands and species. You are ruining what people love about this province.
The changes regarding listing and designation will lead to a net loss for Ontario's built history and for our sense of regional and local identity.

These changes to the Ontario Heritage Act are NOT constructive. It makes heritage stays harder to obtain and hurts the ability of our minority communities to make the case for designation of important sites

The Heritage Act does not require changes in Bill 23 - these proposed changes do more harm than good and potentially destroy our vibrant communities.

Please reconsider these changes. We can build new houses but we CANNOT build new heritage buildings. Once these buildings are gone, they are gone. Erasing our collective identity.
Bill 23 should not include any changes to the Ontario Heritage Act.
Thank-you
Changes to the Ontario Heritage Act will not create more housing. Ontario’s old building stock is not plentiful enough to be a barrier. There are swaths of inner suburbs which we can density instead.

I'm very disappointed that the changes to the heritage act will erase what is left of our city. Developers have run amok for decades now destroying everything that makes it a liveable and worldly city.

I do not want this change as a citizen of Ontario, I don’t want this bill passed. I do not believe this change to the current Ontario Heritage Act is the appropriate solution for the continued housing crisis.
I’m appalled that Ford is trying to quash environmental, heritage, structural feasibility studies, and opposition from a broad swath of Ontario residents to Bill 23. Yes, there’s a housing crisis.

This bill will limit the ability of Municipal Heritage Committees to plan appropriately, and it will put pressure on already overworked municipal staff and volunteers to protect local heritage properties.
