I support the following objections to this bill which are stated by Ecojustice:

“The Special Economic Zones Act is premised on the false idea that environmental laws and regulations impede economic growth.

 
This means SEZs can be fast-tracked with little to no public review, environmental assessment, or enforceable protections. Projects within them can be exempted from laws and regulations that would otherwise apply, including with respect to the environment, health, and safety. This framework leaves Ontario’s air, land, and water at the mercy of political discretion, not law."
