I do not support Bill 5 because it will destroy our natural capital. What good are houses and roads if we don’t have clean air, water and soil. We should be investing on our agriculture land to grow more food. This will lessen our need for US food. Nature provides us with flood control at no cost. Read more

Environmental protections are in place for real reasons. They are not inconveniences to development but a protection of the environment that we live and a guide map to a livable future. Hands off. Read more

I oppose this bill because there are too many habitats and green spaces at risk from developers who bill out safety and containment to the lowest bidder. Then when they fail and cause irreparable damage, they close up and run, leaving the taxpayers to foot the bill for cleaning. Read more

I oppose short cuts for industry with no public oversight. I want stronger environmental and endangered species protections. A habitat is everything a species depends on. A habitat is not just dens and nests. Redefining this term to suit the wants of corporations is unethical. Read more

Development should not come at the cost of environmental protection. These planned changes do not account for an interconnected environment. Species habitats are more than their residences. Ford government do better.

The endangered species act is an absolutely necessary part of the process. I think Ontarians have made their wishes very clear on numerous occasions that out protected lands are important to us and we do not wish to see developers ruin it. Please back down. Submitted from Orangeville.

I strongly oppose Bill 5. As our government, and with the ever rising threats to our ecosystem in a society built on one-use plastics and gasoline powered vehicles, there is an expectation that you will do more to protect wildlife, endangered and otherwise, not less. Read more

We care about the environment in Ontario. We want to support wildlife and not hinder the environment for Ford croneyism. He’s just as bad a Trump if he removes all the protections solely for his own gain, his croneys gain, developers gain. Read more
