I oppose bill 5. As an ontarian, I want strong environmental protections. Not short cuts for industry, not loopholes for developers and corporations. Keep ontario green. Protect our wildlife. Protect our farmland.

This is terrible. I'm so ashamed of what Doug Ford is trying to do. He's a horrible human being and does not deserve to be in any office. I strongly opposes this bill and everything it proposes to do. I fully support arresting Doug Ford. Read more

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 strongly oppose the proposed changes to the protection and conservation of species at risk, which are being framed as a way to eliminate delays and reduce costs for development. Read more

Why do we have to destroy everything. No different than him trying to build on the green belt. Leave the law the way it is. We have to protect our environment and water it is the one thing we can’t get back. Also should be speaking to the First Nations Read more

Dear Premier Ford, Steam rolling through prospective projects with no care for how it affects others, including, but not limited to, people and endangered species. In the process, you're becoming more like Premier Danielle Smith of Alberta and the United States President Trump. Congratulations! Read more

I don’t agree with this bill because we should not take short cuts that damage our country in the future. A small amount of people will benefit but it jeopardizes the health of our ecosystem and ultimately our people.

As much as I understand the need for development in Ontario I am opposed to development at the cost of our limited natural resources and environment. We must protect the animals and environments which came before us, and weakening those protections is a terrible way to move forward. Read more
