Proposed amendments to the Rebuilding Ontario Place Act, 2023 and the Unleashing our Economy Act, seem designed to quash public engagement in determining the future of Ontario Place.

This bill is dangerously at odds with existing legislation designed to protect the environment and lacks proper checks and balances. It needs to be thoroughly reconsidered, in consultation with preservation experts and indigenous communities

I am writing to object in the strongest possible way to the proposed exemptions from the Environmental Bill of Rights that will remove the right of Ontarians to be advised of, or to comment on, any required permits at Ontario Place, on or off site, to support the project.

Our wildlife and environment need to be protected, especially during current times of climate change and habitat instability. Despite this, this bill and it's proposed changes to the Endangered Species Act are actively striving to hurt our environment.

"I am writing to object in the strongest possible way to Bill 5 and the proposed change that would exempt Ontario Place from public consultation requirements.

This bill is incrediy dangerous and short sighted. We need environmental regulations in place to protect current and future endangered species and to preserve green spaces that are so important to Canadians/Ontarians.

REJECT BILL 5!!!! If Bill 5 passes, it would give the Ford Government the ability to take any land it wants, from anywhere, and give it to any corporation for whatever project it chooses. Local and municipal laws will not apply in these zones – and that could include labour, safety and wage laws.

In no way is it OK to bypass environmental laws just for the sake of economic “growth”. Environmental protections preserve the actual value of the land and help preserve our natural surroundings FOR the people.

I do not support Bill 5. My concern is that this bill would allow for the provincial government to exempt entire areas - and the companies operating in them - from environmental protections, health standards, and local planning rules.

Withdraw Bill 5 because it -

Rolling back protections to "help" our economy is a long term loser that only looks good myopically. We rely on nature. Companies and industry come and go.
As a resident of Ontario and Canadian citizen, I strongly oppose the changes proposed in 025-0416. There is no justification for the Ontario Place project to be exempt from parts of the Environmental Bill of Rights.

Bill 5 is anti-democratic. I am concerned that it will lead to a lack of public transparency. I am also concerned that it will cause species to lose their habitats due to inadequate or completely absent assessments into the impact of development projects.
