Bill 5 lets Premier Doug Ford designate any piece of land in Ontario a “special economic zone.” Inside that zone, Ford and his cabinet can override any provincial law.
I think it will be primarily used for enabling mining companies to mine and do what they please while ignoring Indigenous rights, environmental concerns, and so on.
The ring of fire is mining, which is required for EV, which is the “green” industry of the future they are always talking about. We build lithium batteries for EV and renewable usage; which displaces oil usage, which removes smog, and hopefully should be more efficient in the long term.
Indigenous have their hands out for free cash as they always do, and that kills this industry like it does everything else in Canada. Hence why we are second to last in per capita GDP growth in the entire OECD. How poor do we need to be before some cynicism kicks in and we stop cosplaying, this is peoples livelihoods we’re wrecking.
