I strongly oppose Bill 5. It’s a blatant attack on Ontario’s natural heritage, driven by corporate greed and political self-interest. We’re tired of Doug Ford putting profits before people and stripping protections from endangered species and green spaces.

I oppose bill 5. I want strong environmental protections. I oppose shortcuts for industry. Ontario is beautiful and we cannot lose its beauty in the name of money.
I oppose dropping Bill 5. Land development is not more important than protecting the environment! Ford and his ilk are ruining Ontario for future generations. The earth needs protection!

This Conservative government is sacrificing species that may be threatened or endangered in order to speed up projects that will enrich developers. In plain language you are eliminating the need for habitat protection. Are you building affordable homes in these areas?? Didn’t think so. Disgraceful.
I strongly oppose this bill. Checks and balances on industry are very important in a world threatened by climate change. This new bill is not stringent enough and would open the door to environmental damage.

I oppose bill 5, I oppose unregulated industry. I support strong environmental protections. We only have the one earth, it's time we actually started caring for it.
I oppose Bill 5. The endangered species act itself doesn’t even provide enough protections to ensure our ecosystems remain healthy during and after economic and industrial development in an area.

I oppose Bill 5.
This bill is detrimental to the environment. Governments should not have the authority to have overarching power to strip environmental protections oversight.
This requires public consultations.
