Health Canada points to Ontario. Ontario points back to Health Canada-PMRA. Companies point to their legal spray licenses. Foresters point to Provincial Policy. Oversight refuses to Review. The circle keeps spinning while public forests, watersheds, wildlife habitat, forest foods, medicines, and places people and wildlife depend on are chemically sprayed. We are asking people to pressure every part of the circle with one clear demand: suspend the 2026 forest herbicide spray season now.
📢 Make Your Voice Count! Easy Electronic Actions –
1. Send a Notice of Non-Consent to Ontario Ministers
Tell the Minister of Natural Resources and the Minister of the Environment that you do not consent to chemical herbicide spraying in Ontario’s public forests and ask them to suspend the 2026 spray season and transition Ontario to non-chemical forest management.
2. Email Your MPP – Member of PROVINCIAL Parliament
Ask your MPP to call on the Minister of Natural Resources and the Minister of the Environment to suspend the 2026 forest herbicide spray season and transition Ontario to non-chemical forest management.
3. Email Your FEDERAL MP
Forestry is provincial, but pesticide approval is federal. Tell your MP that Health Canada approvals must not be used as a shield for provincial forest spraying.
4. Email Regional Foresters
Contact the foresters connected to proposed spray plans in your region. Professional foresters cannot keep signing off while Indigenous opposition, municipal opposition, public non-consent, ecosystem risks, wildfire risks and the 1999 Senate warning are all on record.
The Ontario Ombudsman REFUSES REVIEW, and sends us around the Blame Circle. ⭕️
5. Check Where Your Municipal Council Stands
Use the Municipal Tracker to see where your council stands – whether they supported the Stop the Spray resolutions, debated them, or quietly filed them away instead of taking action.
