I oppose Bill 5. No one, least of all the government, should be able to ignore the laws of the land whenever it seems convenient. If Bill 5 is passed, it will spell the end of democracy in our province. It will tell everyone that our laws mean nothing.

I am writing to appose bill 5. This bill will hurt the wildlife in Ontario and doesn’t not put form strict measures for recovery plans, permits or safety of species. No to bill 5.
Bill 5 is an alarming step backward for environmental protection in Ontario. By repealing the Endangered Species Act, the province would be removing one of the most important tools we have to safeguard vulnerable wildlife.

Please cancel this bill I disagree with it completely and care about keeping our environmental protection plans in place for developers. I am saying no to bill 5.

We’ve been through this with the Greenbelt - HANDS OFF!
Endangered species - HANDS OFF
Tell your developers- HANDS OFF
Environmental protections are in place - HANDS OFF
HOW ABOUT LISTENING TO CONSTITUENTS, and not LINING your pockets at our expense.

This is a horrible bill. Why would you try to pass something that would allow you to do whatever you want in certain areas without our approval? You are supposed to be working for us!

I oppose this bill completely.
Bill 5 guts environmental protections, ignores Indigenous rights, and strips away public oversight. Ontario deserves better—development shouldn’t come at the cost of democracy and ecosystems.

Ontario’s biodiversity is one of our greatest strengths. Do not allow big developers to bulldoze sensitive ecosystems to build mansions for the rich. Do not do away with independent scientific involvement in development plans.

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, the Protect Ontario by Unleashing Our Economy Act. This legislation poses a serious threat to Ontario’s natural heritage, democratic processes and Indigenous rights.

This bill disregards the fragility of our environment. As the bill stands, unrepairable damage will occur before any assessment of its value.

I oppose bill 5. It is nonsensical that entities can start activities after having only registered, before review and impact assessments are complete, before all stakeholders and experts have been heard.

These changes to the endangered species act are terrible. In a time where we should be investing MORE to protect the animals and environment, this goes directly against green initiatives and species protection.
