I just called both offices of my MPP to ask him to vote against Bill 5. He used to be a Minister of Natural Resources and Forestry so should know what Bill 5 means to the environment. I encourage all my peeps up here to call him and voice your concerns. It takes about 3-5 minutes. #muskoka

Ontario Liberal MPP Ted Hsu has filed over 4000 amendments to stop Bill 5 - one of the Ford government’s most dangerous & anti-democratic bills. This is about your clean water, air, and community. We will keep fighting until this government kills Bill 5 & gets it right. #onpoli
