I am writing to make it very clear that I OPPOSE Bill 5. I think it is absolutely appalling (but unfortunately not surprising at this point) that Doug Ford is trying to quietly roll back environmental protections and bypass laws for him and his friends to build on protected lands. Read more

I oppose Bill 5. I want stronger environmental protections and better protection for wild animals specifically. This is a blatant plan to harm the environment for the betterment of big industry. Read more

I strongly disagree with the proposed legislation "Protect Ontario by Unleashing our Economy Act, 2025". I do not agree that environmental concerns should be sacrificed for the benefit of a few developers, that's called crony capitalism. Read more

I oppose Bill 5. I oppose allowing corporations, companies, or any single person getting short cuts with no public oversight. I want stronger environmental and endangered species protections. We only get one earth and we need to protect it accordingly. I, a citizen of Ontario, oppose Bill 5.

My name is Sinéad Moran, Canadian citizen and York resident and I am against Bill 5. We should be respecting current laws set for developing and not disregarding the safety guards put in place. Read more

Scientists have been screaming at the top of their lungs that we need to do something about the climate NOW. Ford’s policies act like we have a second planet to go to. We need to prioritize the PRESERVATION of our natural resources, not the exploitation of them. Read more

Bill 5 is not acceptable and will cause more intrusive effects on our environment but it will help investors and builders. It's a one way battle to eliminate our natural environment and protect endangered species and wildlife. Read more
