We operate a small vineyard. The new Economic Development Zone appears to be geared towards benefiting small and large projects or properties. We are changing our irrigation system to wtar our vineyard. Lire davantage

I am entirely against creating special economic zones that put the power to override laws and procedures into the hands of ministers. I find this hazardous and anti-democratic.

Ontario’s environment and communities deserve better. The Special Economic Zones framework leaves our province’s air, land, and water at the mercy of political discretion — not the law. Lire davantage

The environment and any species in that environment must be protected by law and not by a politicians' discretion. Any decisions made must be transparent to the people of Ontario so that they can hold the decision-makers to account using the law. Lire davantage

Thanks for recognizing need for tweaks to Bill 5, but this proposal will prove less than effective at requiring confirmation of Indigenous rights holders' full involvement and informed consent.This is primary to successful accomplishment of any resource development scenarios. Lire davantage

I am very concerned about the Special Economic Zones Act, 2025 (Bill 5) which gives the Ontario government sweeping powers to override environmental protections, exempt hand-picked companies from laws, and sideline Indigenous voices within “Special Economic Zones” (SEZs) — in the name of “economic g Lire davantage

This is just a terrible idea for future generations. We need to protect what's left our nature in Ontario, to stabilize Earth's climate, to prevent acidification of the oceans, and to stop polluting. Clearly, the business-as-usual approach is unable to do this. Just stop!!!!

Bill 5, in the guise of fighting Donald Trump, does exactly what he is doing. It eliminates environmental protections and ignores binding treaties with First Nations to allow indiscriminate resource extraction in any area that the government designates 'a special economic zone'. Lire davantage

This does not affirm indigenous rights and they don't ensure that risk management is essential to these SEZs and they will be extremely effective. And there is no one independent who can assess if trusted proponents have a good record on environmental compliance.

I truly despise this Ford Government. There nothing they propose that is anywhere close to my value system. We have a bully for a premier and a legislation of yes men. Where will it all end?

Designated projects within SEZs are only required to consider health and environmental risks. There’s no requirement to ensure that risk mitigation strategies actually work, and no independent oversight. Lire davantage

I don't believe that special economic zones legislation is necessary. To me, it is a trampling on the rights of the citizens of Ontario to make billionaires more wealthy. The projects that we really need are not the ones that will be lobbied for.
