This is not happening. We as a people and country vehemently oppose this Bill. We need to seek environmental protection and solutions. Not to strip laws and expose the soft underbelly of nature. We protect. Moving forward in society- when we know better we do better.

Born and raised Ontario I strongly oppose this bill and actually would prefer stronger environmental protections and greater protection for endangered species. I oppose shortcuts for industry and oppose overriding the law in these special zones

I oppose this bill in defense of our environment, our biodiversity collapse is getting closer and closer, like the doomsday clock getting closer to midnight.

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.
Endangered species don't usually live within city limits, they are found in undeveloped lands around Ontario. Building anything on undeveloped lands causes further hardship on our environment. To dilute the endangered species act is a frightful idea and one which must not proceed.

As a lifelong Ontario resident I strongly oppose Bill 5. Doug Ford's government should not be allowed to bypass usual environmental protection safety nets for development on environmentally sensitive land.
i oppose this bill. i would like to see stronger environmental protections and do not support overriding laws in government identified “economic zones”
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.
