I oppose bill 5. I want stronger environmental protections and the protection of endangered species. I oppose shortcuts for industry without public oversight. I oppose overriding the law in special economic zones.

I oppose Bill 5. Endangered species matter. Process matters. We must not allow laws to be repealed that protect our environment. This is not okay to fast track industry. It is short sighted and not good for Ontario. This Bill must be stopped. Read more

While I understand the desire to streamline approvals for housing and infrastructure, it's critical to remember that environmental and endangered species protection orders are not just bureaucratic obstacles—they are safeguards for our ecosystems, biodiversity, and future generations. Read more

I am extremely against Bill 5. I oppose it and disagree with everything it stands for and I know many other Ontarian's feel the same. This is exactly the opposite of what Ontario should be doing, and it will have severe negative consequences on the environment and our daily lives. Read more

I oppose Bill 5. I oppose the granting of short cuts and overriding of laws for industry and select interests at the expense of the environment, indigenous peoples and average citizens. We need STRONGER protection, not less, to ensure the longevity and prosperity of all species. Read more
