The proposal is in a nutshell a way to bypass the laws for protecting endangered species. The government should not be deciding what species do and do not qualify as endangered. Read more

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.

this will send us backwards on saving our environment and protecting the wildlife that’s left. this is the only planet we will ever have and you may be too old to see the effects of this when it gets bad but we will have to live with the consequences of your actions!

I do not believe that it is the best interest of Ontario for this bill to be put forward! We absolutely need to do more to protect all species and any bill that puts the natural habitat of protected species at risk is UNACCEPTABLE!

NO to Bill 5! No to lessening the protections for endangered species. No to making things easier for businesses and industries. We MUST protect our wildlife and plants; the environment. Read more

Minister Ford, 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 fully and completely disagree with this bill as it allows development on protected land, reduces the ability to protect endangered species and is a cash grab for friends of the government. Read more

I believe that part of what makes Ontario such a great place to live is its natural beauty and its diverse animal population. I believe the laws we have in place to protect nature are the bare minimum to help conserve our wildlife and their environment. Read more
