From carbon capture technology to forest fire mitigation, a new bill introduced by Muskoka-Parry Sound MPP and Minister of Natural Resources Graydon Smith covers a lot of ground. Smith recently introduced the Resource Management and Safety Act 2024, the fist new bill introduced by the Ministry of Natural Resources in nearly a decade. It also marks the first time a Muskoka Parry Sound MPP has tabled a bill in the House of Commons as a sitting government in more than two decades. “It took a long time to put this all together but I feel like it’s had a very good reception so far, ” said Smith. “There are a lot of different components of this bill that are important to many different sectors in Ontario. I feel like it’s going to open up a lot of opportunities.” .
