This Act has the potential to erase valuable heritage landmarks from our province robbing future generations of the chance to experience and understand their history. Decisions about what to preserve are best made locally. This bill should not be passed.
Hard to believe that heritage land once protected is the right choice for a location to build more housing.
Kinda seems like a house could be built anywhere but you won't find the features of this land just anywhere.

Please reconsider the motion to allow heritage buildings to be demolished. Developers are all about the money to be made. This is my heritage. Let’s pretend I am an immigration Ontario only it is the buildings of my ancestors. These buildings make Ontario a more interesting place to visit.

I do not support Bill 23.

This proposal effectively eliminates heritage listing, which, despite being considered "interim" protection, is a less cumbersome and more resource effective way of managing change to heritage properties. Heritage listing is a "win win" for both property owners and municipalities.

The reason that many people choose to live here is because we know our history and appreciate the registry of heritage buildings. This is not an impediment to affordable housing as these buildings and houses exist as residences already.

Bill 23 should be shelved until more thought can be given to where new housing in Ontario should be located. Certainly, we should not be paving over chunks of the formerly "protected" greenbelt with the excuse that it is suddenly mandatory that it be developed.
