I do not think any act should be able to avoid or be exempt from the Environmental Assessments Act. We are continually and drastically losing our habitat diversity that supports various ecosystems and flora and fauna.
Has the province solved every other issue like bad healthcare and not building enough homes that we are considering building an extremely expensive highway under a highway without any proper study just like the bike lanes because one guy decided so?

Plays well with your base, like "buck a beer".
Despite not being a good idea, plow on. Whatever stupid idea comes to you must be implemented.

Environmental assessments exist for a good reason. Proposal: if building an idiotic highway nobody wants across multiple provincially significant wetlands causes the process to be bogged down in environmental assessments, maybe don't build it.

You cannot in good conscience propose to eliminate environmental assessment and environmental impact studies over a multi-billion dollar project like Highway 413. Habitat protection for endangered species must be taken into account.

Adding new highways is not the answer to reducing gridlock, investments in sustainable mass transit is the approach. Furthermore, risking irreparably damaging our environment by exempting this project from the environmental assessment act endangers the lives both people and wildlife.

I strongly object to this proposal on the basis that it makes removes barriers to constructing Highway 413, which is a bad project that should not be built.

The environment needs to come first. We do not need yet another highway. We need to work on funding public transit and find ways to reduce the use of single occupancy vehicles
I am writing to express my concerns about Highway 413 and the potential negative impacts of this project on both our road infrastructure and environment.

Highway 413 will negatively impact the surrounding GTA area significantly. This highway will cut through multiple streams and rivers that contain precious habitat and homes for wildlife and plants a like.

I am in total disagreement to this over reaching piece of legislation. Environmental assessments are required more than ever as we continue to erode our natural landscapes.
This highway is unnecessary and the solution of subsidizing the use of the 407 is a much saner approach.

This bill is a joke. Not only is it incredibly worrisome that the government feels the need to be exempt from environmental standards rather than working within them, but it is also terrifying that this bill is based on a faulty premise.

I have lost all trust in our elected officials to do what is best for the people who elected them. We must stop destroying the natural environments in exchange for mega highways that only encourage more and more vehicles on the roads instead of finding viable transit solutions that make sense.
