Coun. Leanne Caron was one of several guest speakers at a rally and march held Saturday to combat the controversial Bill 5, which the Ontario government said would give it the ability to fast-track development projects by creating exemption zones.
The bill would repeal the Endangered Species Act. Critics say "environmental havoc" will follow, and democratic rights will be eroded.
“The last time Doug Ford tried this, the people of Ontario stopped him,” she told the roughly 200 people gathered at the covered bridge in York Road Park.
“Bill 5 and Bill 17 are the same thing, exactly the same thing. He’s trying to do it again.”
The people of Ontario have betrayed the rest of Canada by electing Drug Fraud yet again. If they choose to let him continue steamrolling over environmental rules and established First Nations rights, what happens is on them.
