It's a shift that, for the first time, places millennia-old Indigenous history under direct political control and raises the alarm among experts and First Nations that cultural and burial sites could be erased in the name of economic growth.

Oh yes, the Ford govt family& friends will get loads of “mileage“ from this #Bill5 — they’re only getting started.
"...devastating #health effects on those who swim, paddle, and gather in the area."
The Ford govt pushed through #Bill5, allowing them to sidestep the requirement for public consultation AND #Environmental assessments. 😡

Good deal. Ford's fast tracking would probably be disastrous for First Nation's because Ford only cares about one thing, and that's money. No one is above it and no one is below it. #fordgovernment #corrupt #onpoli #mining #bill5 #treaty9

#DidYouKnow: #Bill5 potentially strips Ontarians & First Nations living in Ontario of labour protections, human rights & treaty rights. It also leaves Ontario’s environment & natural species unprotected, exposing our province & people to ecological disaster.

Only five populations of the beautiful wood-poppy remain in Canada—all in Ontario 🌼 One population is down to a single plant, and now a developer has bought land home to another.
Learn how #Bill5 threatens the wood-poppy and how we can help repeal it:

It’s #Halloween, but the scariest thing in Ontario today isn’t the ghosts, ghouls or vampires...it’s Doug Ford’s #Bill5. 👻 👹 🧛🏻
While kids go door to door for treats, Premier Ford is opening the door to developers.
From Mexico to China, global examples of areas where laws are lifted in the name of economic development have seen people and the environment suffer — but the Ford government is still pressing ahead with Bill 5
