[All] Write to your editor: Ontario suspends environmental oversight citing COVID-19

[Lanteigne]

The Ontario government recently announced it will suspend public oversight and transparency in environmental decision-making during the COVID-19 emergency. This change allows the government to push forward projects or laws that could significantly damage the environment without consulting or notifying the public. 

While we want and expect our elected officials to do what is required to address this crisis and stop the spread of the virus, it must not be at the expense of regulations that protect water, land, wildlife and clean air.
