Protecting Heritage Properties - Opposition to Bill 23

The SLNA has expressed to Premier Ford our significant concerns about Ontario's Bill 23, the More Homes Built Faster Act. While more homes are definitely needed, they should not come at the expense of our Heritage resources across this province.

Read SLNA's Letter to Premier Ford.
