Send Notice of Non-Consent to the Minister of Natural Resources & Minister of Environment

For 70 years, Ontario’s public forests have been chemically controlled with toxic herbicides (weedkillers). Starting in the 1950s was Agent Orange-era spraying with 2,4-D and 2,4,5-T. Then came glyphosate, and more recently other forestry herbicides such as triclopyr and imazapyr. Different decade, different chemical weedkiller, same dangerous system: clearcut, spray poison, replant conifers 🌲🌲🌲🌲🔥, and call it forest management. 😳

It is not safe. It is not sustainable forestry. It is Chemical Forestry.

First they clearcut then they spray, and they call this forest management

Indigenous Nations have opposed forest herbicide spraying on their Traditional Territories for decades. Ignoring that opposition is not consultation. It is not consent. It raises serious Section 35 concerns.
