Another disappointing proposal of the Ford gorvernment. Proposals like this make it clear that they value money over the rights of indigenous people to know about their heritage and the culture of Ontario. Very disappointed to see something like this proposed.

It really worries me how the Ford Govt can only see the hand in front of their face. This "red tape" exists to stop us making foolish mistakes of the past, over again.

This should be called the “Destroying Ontario’s Heritage Act”. Why don’t Doug Ford’s conservatives no longer want to conserve things. I realize that Ford is a thug, a brute, and not very smart, Ur what is wrong g with the rest of the consevative party? Scrap this bill.
This proposal is not only trying to remove a critical step of the building process that aims at preserving history and knowledge of different area. It also removes critical steps that were taken with the indigenous people for reconciliation and saving site.
