So, if I'm following correctly: wind turbines must not be built where they might disrupt someone's 'viewscape', but open-pit / mountain-top-removal coal mining is a go?
Just so we’re clear: Alberta is a place where a landowner can’t legally say NO to O&G development, but also can’t say YES to renewables. Strong and free, right? What a sad joke. #ableg

#renewables are a fraction of the cost, safer, and will not create radioactive waste that has to be stored for hundreds of thousands of years. Tell #onpoli to say NO to a new #nuclear reactor in the GTA and YES to renewables and conservation. 📝NoGTAreactor.ca

There's bad environmental policy and then there is 🔥🔥BAD 🔥 🔥environmental policy, when a government uses a global pandemic as cover to gut critical environmental safeguards. @fordnation abandon your attack on Ontario's beloved science-based Conservation Authorities 🦋🐟🌿🍂
This is infuriating. "Months of planning" = municipalities all over Ontario rose up against Provinces plan to gut Public Health.
The modelling released today shows that our months of planning and collective action to stop the spread of #COVID19 is working. But in order for these projections to become reality, we must continue to stay home and practise physical distancing. news.ontario.ca/opo/en/2020/04…
Not good enough. This is already long overdue.
