I am writing to express my concerns about Bill 212 and request that you vote against it, or amend it to address my concerns. I have attached a document summarising my concerns and proposing solutions. Briefly:

I strong oppose the Highway 413 Act which seeks to shove thorough the construction of the highway disregarding the potential environmental impacts it can bring.

I am strongly against this Act. It is embarrassingly lazy to think human convenience is of higher priority to the province than the lives of rare and vulnerable species at risk.

I am deeply concerned for the provincial overreach in Bill 212, that the province can dictate things like traffic laws in municipalities.
I am also concerned about the removal of environmental protections that are required of provincial governments building things.

This bill is too open ended and a HUGE reach from federal government to bypass environment rules around this project.
This bill is openly trying to bypass checks and balances put by city of Toronto

Absolutely not. This proposal gives sweeping authority to the provincial government that is simply not appropriate. This goes against the will of the people who elected this government.
This is terrible, none of this is going to solve gridlock.
The Ford government wants to tear up infrastructure? ALREADY COMPELTED WORK? Doesn't sound like common sense to me.

I am pleased to see that part of this bill will prevent landowners from causing pointless delays to highway projects by bringing cases to court. i.e. R.S.O. 1990, c. E.26, s. 39 (3)

Why is a bill that allows eminent domain to become legal in Ontario on the cards. I would rather not be in a position where my property can be seized for literally anything with less than a day's notice. Heck most places that are less free don't have laws like this.

The bill gives the province power to take away any land without legal recourse for people to fight it
If you live anywhere that the province deems is suitable for a highway, they can take it away
That is overreach and smells of corruption

This highway and expropriating land of the people of Ontario is not in the best interest of this province. People will be severely unhappy with this outcome and this is not the solution we need. We do not need another highway. Let people stay in their homes without kicking them out.

This highway is not needed. Public transit to take people out of cars and is needed. The more lanes you have the more cars you will have. It has been proven but I guess Dougie doesn't have construction friends that build transit, just roads and "homes".
Honestly disappointed in a bill seeking to expand the powers of the province to mistreat the environment, all for the sake of car-centric design.

Your government’s continued failure to allow environmental assessments is going to be your own version of Walkerton as it was for the Mike Harris administration. You already exempted yourselves from an EA that deals with raw sewage at Ontario Place!!!
