Cherianne Cybulskie, a local Forest Bathing Guide spoke to us about Bill 5 – The Protect Ontario By Unleashing Our economy Act.
She says the bill isn’t true to its word.
She says in its place will be a weaker law.
She says the bill will allow the province to create special economic zones, where environmental laws, local bylaws and other requirements can be ignored.
She says the concern is that development will lead to animals in our listening area being trapped in isolation pockets.
She asks that anyone who is concerned visit the Environmental Registry of Ontario Website (ERO.ontario.ca), and share concerns with the government, or contact our local MPP.
