I am writing to strongly oppose Bill 5: the Protect Ontario by Unleashing Our Economy Act and its dangerous proposals, including the creation of Special Economic Zones, the weakening of Ontario’s endangered species protections, and the exemption of the Eagle’s Nest mine from an environmental review.

I oppose bill 5. I want stronger environmental protections and the protection of endangered species. I oppose shortcuts for industry. I oppose overriding the law in special economic zones.

I strongly oppose Bill 5. I would actually prefer stronger environmental protections not less. In my opinion businesses should not be able to circumvent environmental protections.

I oppose this bill. During this time of climate endangerment we must preserve what's left of our wildlife, natural resources and ecosystems that regulate our climate and wellbeing across the province. It's shameful that this bill has even been proposed.

I do NOT support bill 51. This shouldn't be a topic of discussion, and should be illegal to even present this bill. This will change the future of our kids and their kids, and not to mention the living beings that will be affected by this. Read more

I am writing to voice my opposition to this exemption in the strongest terms. The public has a right to be informed and advise on environmental impacts, and above all we have a right for our precious Lake Ontario to be protected over commercial interests. Read more

I am opposed to Bill 5. I believe that twe need to be doing more to protect our environment, not less. This bill gives industry too much easy access to our lands and environment. On top of that, the bill is inherently antidemocratic. The people of Ontario do not want this! Read more

This bill is so wrong on every level. Did the Ford government not learn a lesson when they tried to bulldoze the Greenbelt for more development projects. We have endangered species laws for a reason. Let’s leave somebody the next generation of kids that want to learn and explore. Read more

We need to protect our endangered species and environment now more than ever due to the threats of climate change. Humans are the number one cause in leading the 6th mass extension of animals. We can adapt an environmental friendly approach to building and developing Ontario. Read more

I do not support the plan to scrap the Endangered Species Act and create regulation-free zones for industry. The proposal threatens the natural world all around us and puts wildlife at greater risk than ever. Stop this bill
