The building code should be…

The building code should be amended to deter new development and In-Fill development from using natural gas as a primary heat and cooking source. We will never get to GREEN if this natural gas usage continues to be expanded for all new homes and builds.

The New Homes Act, is enabling development of extreme high rise builds to build without Bird Friendly Solutions. These should be incorporated into the new building codes, as should the requirement of Only Green Roofs.

Ontario has continued to lose has lost So many bird species through the past 60 years, that many are past the endangered list, now totally gone. The loss of Green space, meadows, pastures, forests, wetlands are the culprit, due to development permit to accommodate the Federal Governments Immigration demands, without consideration of habitation, work and quality of life. When was the last time you saw a Meadow Lark, if you even know what it is!

For the sake of your children's, children and children's future life quality, which rests totally upon the environment they Must Live In, Amend the Building Code accordingly. Think LONG TERM NOT SHORT TERM!
