  • Zombie Phone Zap to #AmendBill185

    Bill 185 includes a provision that would strip the public of the right to appeal land use decisions at the Ontario Land Tribunal.

    Don't let the Ford government take your voice away! Use our simple and automatic calling tool to call Premier Doug Ford and your MPP today to urge them to amend Bill 185 and uphold the right of residents and community groups to participate in planning decisions that affect our lives and the environment.

    The Phone Zap will take place Monday, April 22, Tuesday, April 23, and Wednesday, April 24 at 12pm.

  • Get Ready for the Provincial Day of Action!

    • Online

    On Saturday, June 8, 2024, the Reform Gravel Mining Coalition will hold its first ever Day of Action to Protect Ontario from Gravel Mining.

    Across the province, local groups will hold actions to defend lives and the environment from harmful and unnecessary pits and quarries in their communities, and to demand a provincial moratorium on new gravel mining approvals with the aim of substantially changing the way this precious, non-renewable resource is managed.

    RSVP to join our public, online meeting on Tuesday, May 7, at 7p.m. to learn about the many ways you can participate in the Day of Action, from attending in-person events, to sending emails, making calls, and writing letters to the editor to advocate with policymakers.

We acknowledge that we work on the Treaty and traditional territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, Treaty 13 and the Williams Treaties, the Treaty and traditional territory of Williams Treaty Nations (Alderville, Hiawatha, Curve Lake, Hiawatha and Scugog Island, Beausoleil, Georgina Island and Rama Island First Nations). Ancestrally this territory was home to other First Nations including the Wendat, Haudenosaunee, and the Pentun peoples. Today, this land is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples. In addition, our work takes place nationwide, across all the Treaty and unceded lands of Turtle Island. We recognize, respect and strive to reconcile the inherent Aboriginal and Treaty rights of all the Indigenous peoples as upheld within the UN Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and the Constitution of Canada.
