PWEP opposed Bill 5, the Protect Ontario by Unleashing Our Economy Act, because of the grave and irreversible environmental impacts this legislation would have across the Province, as well as out of a concern for the ways in which it undermines the democratic process. This is why PWEP has asked for Bill 5 to be repealed. You can do the same: call or write a letter to the Premier and other MPPs to express your concerns.

​

Call the Premier’s office 416-325-1941
doug.fordco@pc.ola.org 
MPP Lisa Thompson: 519-523-4251 / 519-396-3007
lisa.thompsonco@pc.ola.org

​

We will be posting other action items going forward.

​

In the meantime you can read PWEP's Letter to the Legislative Assembly of Ontario / Committee of the Interior here.

​

Please feel free to copy any parts of PWEP's Open Letter that resonate with you.
