Ordre du Jour

Opposition Day

Jour de l'opposition

Ms. Churley moved,

Mme Churley propose,

That this House affirms the necessity of protecting the Oak Ridges Moraine and the importance of having a planning system in Ontario that protects our drinking water, wildlife habitat and other natural features; and

That this House calls on the Government to freeze development on the Oak Ridges Moraine, until a detailed policy statement protecting the moraine from inappropriate development is adopted that is binding on all government decision-makers; and

That this House endorses a return to binding policy statements under the Planning Act that would require all government decision-makers to give priority to environmental values in their planning decisions, as was done under the amendments to the Planning Act, passed in 1994.
