Undermining of existing environmental laws</h2></div><div class="subscriber-only" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 16px; font-size: 20px; line-height: 28px; font-family: var(--font-daily-text); overflow-wrap: break-word;">Bill 5 does not exist in a vacuum. It is part of a series of legislative and policy changes that have steadily eroded Ontario’s environmental protections. These include amendments to the Environmental Assessment Act, the removal of lands from the Greenbelt (subsequently reversed after public backlash), and changes to the Planning Act and Development Charges Act.</p></div><div class="subscriber-only" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 16px; font-size: 20px; line-height: 28px; font-family: var(--font-daily-text); overflow-wrap: break-word;">Together, these moves are part of a broader deregulatory agenda that prioritizes economic development and housing supply over environmental sustainability. </p></div><div class="subscriber-only" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><h2 style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: var(--font-daily-text); line-height: 24px; margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px; font-size: 22px;">10. Lack of evidence-based policy making</h2></div><div class="subscriber-only" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 16px; font-size: 20px; line-height: 28px; font-family: var(--font-daily-text); overflow-wrap: break-word;">There is an egregious lack of evidence-based decision-making in the drafting of Bill 5. It was developed with insufficient consultation and ignores best practices in environmental planning. The bill ignores the extensive body of research supporting the ecological, economic, and social benefits of conserving natural heritage systems. Numerous studies have shown that green spaces improve mental and physical health, increase property values, and reduce infrastructure costs through services like stormwater management</p></div><div class="subscriber-only" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><h2 style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: var(--font-daily-text); line-height: 24px; margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px; font-size: 22px;">What you can do</h2></div><div class="subscriber-only" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 16px; font-size: 20px; line-height: 28px; font-family: var(--font-daily-text); overflow-wrap: break-word;">Bill 5 may aim to address Ontario’s housing crisis, but in doing so, it will only worsen the ecological crisis unfolding in parallel. We are trading long-term ecological health for short-term economic and political gains — a decision that may have irreversible consequences for the natural systems that sustain life in Ontario.</p><div class="article-pe-boxad-wrapper subscriber-hide" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 24px; margin-bottom: 24px;"></div></div><div class="subscriber-only" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 16px; font-size: 20px; line-height: 28px; font-family: var(--font-daily-text); overflow-wrap: break-word;">Biodiversity loss is not just an environmental issu e — it’s a human issue. A healthy environment and a livable future require laws that protect the natural world, not ones that pave over it.</p></div><div class="subscriber-only" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 16px; font-size: 20px; line-height: 28px; font-family: var(--font-daily-text); overflow-wrap: break-word;">The most effective way to express your opposition to Bill 5 is to phone your MPP, especially if they’re part of the Progressive Conservative government. Use firm but respectful language: “I oppose Bill 5 because it encourages urban sprawl, threatens species at risk and is in conflict with Ontario’s climate goals. I also care deeply about protecting nature and ecosystems for my children and grandchildren.”</p></div><div class="subscriber-only" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 16px; font-size: 20px; line-height: 28px; font-family: var(--font-daily-text); overflow-wrap: break-word;">In Peterborough-Kawartha, MPP Dave Smith can be reached through his constituency office at 705-742-3777.
