I strongly oppose Bill 5, the Protect Ontario by Unleashing Our Economy Act. This legislation poses a serious threat to Ontario’s natural heritage, democratic processes and Indigenous rights. Read more

I am extremely against bill 5! I think we need stronger language and bills to protect our species and protect our environment. We cannot keep putting economic gains over or homeland or we will will have nothing left for future generations. Read more

I do not support this bill. Species are protected for a reason. The government should not be able to “discreetly” take species off this list. There may be a lot of red tape to get things done, but it’s there for a reason, to protect our wildlife and our green spaces. Read more

I oppose Bill 5. I want stronger protections for endangered species and I oppose shortcuts for industry with no public oversight. I also oppose overriding the law in special economic zones.

So much of our stunning province has been destroyed under the guise of "development." Making changes to the endangered species act is a mistake. Changes to species classification, temporary suspension of protection and removal of species is a huge mistake. Read more

I want stronger environmental protections, there needs to be more due process. This is just another way to get rid of the green belt. Try harder, we can build housing without destroying vital green spaces.

Please do not repeal The Endangered Species Act. I understand we need to move forward with creating new industry and job creation but not at the expense of the environment that will deeply effect all of us in the future. The environment is particularly fragile as you go further north. Read more

What this government sees as "slow and complex" allows ALL stakeholders to weigh in. Once an area is paved over, it can never be restored to its former glory. This government's insistence on creating urban sprawl is inane. There is plenty of space within cities to build and create public transit. Read more

I oppose this bill. It is crucial that we protect our environment and therefore the health of our water and food. We need strong environmental protections, and shortcuts for industry will cause irreparable harm.

I oppose Bill 5. We should be doing more to safeguard habitats, not reducing them more. Endangered species must be protected. And giving industry free passes is undemocratic. I’ve watched the Moraine get destroyed and I don’t want to see that happen to more of Ontario. Read more

DO NOT PASS THIS BILL. The public should have a say in the government endangering our environment. This is Doug Ford, yet again, trying to help himself and his rich buddies get richer by destroying our environment!!! DO NOT PASS THIS BILL

I oppose Bill 5 bypassing environmental standards that allow industry to Pop up wherever. This affects the environment and people that live in those areas. The Greenbelt should be left alone. Thank you, Denise York region area Read more
