From Ontario Nature:
he legislature returned to Queen’s Park last week after not sitting since early June and the Government of Ontario immediately introduced an omnibus bill (140, Building Ontario Faster Act).
Bill 140 amends 21 pieces of legislation and creates three new ones. Of particular concern are the changes to the Environmental Bill of Rights. The proposed amendments take away your rights to participate and know about decisions impacting our environment.
The rights of Ontarians to participate in environmental decision-making and seek accountability for environmental harms are not red tape. Bill 140 takes away those rights and must be withdrawn or significantly amended. Share and like if you agree.
Call or email your MPP and tell them nature and your rights are not red tape.
