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. Read more

I strongly oppose Bill 5. I do not want short cuts for industry around Environmental Protection Acts, Laws, or Bi-Laws with no public insight. I say No to Special Economic Zones as proposed in this Bill. I oppose overriding the law in Special Economic Zones. Read more

The solution to our housing crisis isn't to kill more endangered species and their habitats. The solution is to allow our cities to densify. Remove set back restrictions, allow mixed use, encourage building skyscrapers not sprawl. Read more

This is not a change for the better. These alterations would strip away all the hard-won protections for at-risk species and put short-term industry interests ahead of the well-being and survival of wildlife already on the brink of endangerment. Read more

I oppose Bill 5. It is incredibly important to protect endangered species. I am sick and tired of financial gain being prioritized over the environment. Bills like this set a precedent for further disregard of nature. It is very upsetting to even see such a bill be proposed.

I don’t agree with the proposal. I can’t imagine developers will follow any rules set in place. Bulldoze and ask for forgiveness and pay a fine? Honestly, it’ll just be the cost of doing business for them. Unless some very high penalties are put in place this will be a joke.

I am opposed to the proposed interim changes to the Endangered Species Act, 2007 (ESA). The ESA was enacted to provide science-based, legal protection to Ontario’s most vulnerable species and their habitats. Read more

Prioritize long term gains in benefits to Ontario via saving native species and habitat vs short term goals of $. Where will you and your buddies spend all your $ if there is no world to spend it? Makes sense.

I strongly disagree with any Bill that will lower the protection of our environment and protected species. I strongly urge the Ford government to reconsider this new bill. Read more
