I am opposed to this new legislation, as I fear that we will lose an important part of our heritage if it is enacted. Over the years, we have lost so much of our built heritage to make way for new construction etc. It is so important that we have these historical reminders of our past.

Bill 23 only serves big business and big politicians. The faster homes will not be affordable, heritage homes will be knocked down, natural resources will be stripped, and towns and cities/towns will not recieve money needed to provide infrastructure and resources for the people moving in.

I am very concerned that the government has decided it is necessary to threaten heritage protection of buildings in order to build new housing. It seems like an unnecessary and draconian wiping away of any impediment to developers putting up giant new condos.

These changes are selling our Heritage and the understanding of our past to developers. There is no need to destroy these select properties to create more housing. This will be a shadow on the conservative party for years. It will not be forgotten. One x conservative.
In my view the Greenbelt is an important piece of our heritage so it ought to be protected from development.
Of particular concern is the parcel identified on Map 6 of the proposed amendments. It is west of Duffins Creek nearby Seaton Trail in Rouge Park.

This is another populistic measure that doesn’t have anything common with a real ‘problems solving’. So typical for modern Canada, when governments do what is easier to do, but not what can or/and will work.
On behalf of Canada’s four national heritage conservation NGOs – Canadian Association of Heritage Professionals, Indigenous Heritage Circle, ICOMOS Canada, and National Trust for Canada – we would like to express our grave concerns about the potentially devastating impacts the proposed changes to th

Today, people travel the world to see major heritage buildings and landscapes. People travel locally, to historic district for a variety of shopping, service and entertainment reasons.

I have read the proposal, and I am dismayed at the regressive nature of this effort to impact and reduce the efficacy of Ontario's highly regarded and effective heritage legislation.

In general, this proposal to changes to the OHA is confusing and convoluted. If this truly applies to provincially owned and culturally significant buildings, then the MCM would be the ultimate decision-maker.
