Crystal Beach Lakeview Community Association

Like other community associations, environmental groups, and municipalities, the CBLCA was shocked and overwhelmed by the lack of time for public engagement on Bill 23, the sheer volume and complexity of the bill, and its audacity. Bills 3, 23, and 39, had all been passed by the time we sent our comments and asked that the legislation be repealed. We sent our comments anyway to the following:

• Hon. Doug Ford, Premier, Province of Ontario
• Hon. Steve Clark, Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing
• Members of the Standing Committee on Heritage, Infrastructure and Cultural Policy
• Ms. Chandra Pasma, MPP Ottawa West Nepean, Province of Ontario
• Ms. Theresa Kavanaugh, Councillor, Bay Ward, Ottawa
• Mr. Mark Sutcliffe, Mayor of Ottawa
• Federation of Citizens’ Associations of Ottawa
