An Election Message from the Green Party of Ontario
Posted February 4th, 2025 on Niagara At Large
In Doug Ford country, getting Ontario back in business again means paving over anything
If there’s one thing Doug Ford doesn’t want us to focus on in this election, it’s his environmental record.
And we need your help to push back before he succeeds in destroying our environment.
Let’s take a look at (the Ford Government’s) environmental record:
- – He tried to open the Greenbelt for development. (And is still moving ahead with his plan to build two highways through the Greenbelt – including the controversial Highway 413.)
- – He’s working with Enbridge to ensure that oil and gas remain a staple of the power grid.
- – He gutted conservation authorities to speed up development. (And isn’t consulting – or even informing! – the public about major changes to environmental policy.)
- – He weakened endangered species’ laws, and now Lake Superior’s woodland caribou are in danger of being wiped out.
- – He’s making it easier to build on wetlands. (Doesn’t he know paving wetlands will make flooding worse?)
- – He’s ripping up bike lanes in downtown Toronto.
- – He’s making it easier to build natural gas pipelines.
And the list goes on…
The Ontario Greens are the only party staying focused on the environment, alongside issues like affordable housing, better access to health care, and protecting our economy.
While Doug Ford launches energy retrofit programs designed to help Enbridge turn a profit and wastes billions to help rich land speculators destroy the places we love, we’re staying focused on solutions that take care of people and the environment.
And we need your help to elect more strong Green MPPs to Queen’s Park on February 27th so that we can push back against Doug Ford’s destructive policies.
