A Statement from Mike Schreiner, Leader of the Green Party of Ontario
Posted March 11th, 2026 on Niagara At Large
QUEEN’S PARK — Mike Schreiner released the following statement in response to the Ford government announcement on consolidating conservation authorities.
“Every year, communities across Ontario face increasingly dangerous flood risks. Now, this government wants to sink millions into weakening protections.
Doug Ford is dismantling the critical agencies that protect our lives, livelihoods and property so that he can sell off the places we love, piece by piece, to wealthy, well-connected insiders.
This government continues to centralise power into fewer and fewer hands—undermining local expertise and decision-making and gutting protections for our parks, lakes and rivers.
Ontario Greens are calling on the Ford government to listen to warnings from local experts, reverse this expensive and dangerous plan and actually invest in the systems that keep our communities safe.”
