This is really concerning. The big push to protect our environment and yet we are endorsing the burning of plastics and garbage. Many of these kilns do not have the resources In place to safely burn garbage. This puts all families at risk living close to any of these facilities. Read more

Hello, Please reconsider the decision to allow companies to burn garbage. This earth is our children and their children’s home. Burning garbage is terrible for current residents and future generations. This is not leadership - this is clearly corruption. Read more

With all due respect, please do not destroy our successful Blue Box Recycling programs that need to be expanded and improved - not cut and reduced. Our Provincial leaders need to show they are ready to keep Ontario moving forward not backward. This is the only way to build back trust. Read more
