As someone who has been using Grundy Provincial Park for most of the time that it has been in existence I don’t think that any land should be removed from the park. Park land is for the people of Ontario and should not be carved up everytime a new highway needs to be built. If Hwy.

Removing our parkland anywhere in Ontario is a big mistake, we will lose native species so important to our province, some rare and even endangered.

I disagree with these changes and adamantly stand against this proposal. I'm sure others do or would if they knew this was happening. Protect our Parks Doug Ford!!
I am appalled that the provincial government would even consider selling provincial park land. These lands are protected for many reasons and the less we have, more animals become homeless or endangered, people have less places to visit nature, and forests get cut down.

I do not have an account, but do want my comment to have the same weight as a registered account and to be included in the considerations of this proposal.

I strongly support this amendment. The promised four laning of Highway 69 is long overdue. The protracted delay in upgrading the highway is limiting economic growth in the north.

You Cannot take away provincial parks from the people for a highway. There is too much land and ecosystems that would be destroyed in the process and it is not yours to take
Sad to loos park chunks but Glad they are will be devising the highways finally to end big truck rigs flattening Honda civics and Minnie vans. Safety first ! And Train better truckers next no more deaths the northerners should live safely.

Grundy Lake Provincial Park, and French River PP are located on Georgian bay. Throughout this hot spot area there are plentiful wetlands home to thousands of species. More specifically species at risk. Now I know Ontario doesn’t care for species at risk but Grundy Lake PP and French River PP do.

Please reconsider removing Wasaga Beach provincial park and other Ontario parks from bill C 5. These areas are owned by the people of our province and designed to be a park for all. These parks bring millions of dollars into Ontario.

How are we going to meet the 2022 United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity target of preserving 30 percent of land by 2030 if you are proposing to take land out of protection? Provincial park land should not be used for landfills, as is being suggested as part of this amendment.

This is a completely awful idea. This is not what's needed,find another way. Surely there must be alternatives to eating up park land. Grundy has holds many great memories as does the French river. Please don't destroy this beautiful park.

Twinning of the rest of hwy 69 will become a economic benefit to Northern Ontario and also the rest of Canada whereby complete highway closures are much less likely to happen.This will no longer delay timely deliveries north and south,medical appointments and so on.It will not only save human lives

It is essential to preserve all parts of our provincial pars. Chipping away small sections of these parks will likely only lead to erosion of other parks’ spaces. The provincial government should respect the established parklands.
Why are you destroying beautiful nature to create more infrastructure? I'm not a fan of this proposal. Think of the future world we are leaving for our kids.
I am extremely disappointed to hear about this proposal. We should be protecting all of the lands within our provincial parks, not giving them up to expand highways or for any type of development, period.
