According to MSDS and basic available information proven by science, Ammonia, Nitrogen Oxide and
Lactic Acid all have harmful effects on humans when inhaled.

It is hard to believe that in this day and age, industries are allowed to increase their level of
pollution, even in residential areas.
We live around here because that's all we can afford.

These factories need to be removed from this area. The traffic caused by their transport trucks is
bad and clogs up Keele St and Gunn’s. It is horrible to drive by and see animals parts or skins on
they floor in the middle of the road.

I live locally with my family. I have smelled th emissions from the meat packers and the smell is
very powerful and unpleasant. I worry this will make the smell much worse . I also worry about the
environmental impact of increasing emissions from the meat packers.

Stockyards Slaughter House Ryding - Regency to INCREASE their toxic emissions!
The very thought of this business being allowed to expand their operations and increase air
pollution in our now very residential community sickens and infuriates me.

Stop the stink! This business is operating in an increasingly residential area. The emissions are
not only foul-smelling, but also potentially very harmful.

I find it quite incredulous that the City of Toronto would even contemplate such a horrific
amendment. To increase toxins which would "include ammonia, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter and
lactic acid", is quite staggering.

I have concerns with additional air pollution in my neighbourhood. This is a gentrifying family are
that has many young families. Our children DO NOT need this additional toxic pollution. This
facility should be moved, never mind given permission to increase their air pollution!!

The smell already is so bad that we don't leave our house. The noise from their trucks is already
too much.
The kids don't even go to the park anymore because of this company.
I have lived and worked in this area all of my life. As a child we were The Borough of York, then
later the City of York and now we are part of Toronto. This history alone should make it obvious
that the location of THE STOCKYATDS is out of date.

Im very against this. The slaughterhouses and plants in the neighbourhoods need to go. They don't
belong in the city anymore. Families live in the neighourbood and should not be exposed to the
stench, the pollution, the dangerous driving of their trucks to name a few.

This has become a residential neighborhood. It's no longer appropriate for the slaughterhouses to
be engaged in normal operations much less expanding their output.

I live in this neighborhood and DO NOT SUPPORT THIS! These factories/slaughterhouse are a sore in
the community. The smells, the trucks constantly driving by full of animals headed for slaughter
is too much to bear. I am a vegan and I see this constantly.

I believe that this proposal for an Environmental Compliance Approval with Limited Operational
Flexibility (Air & Noise) should be declined. As a new resident to the area, the stockyards in West
Toronto are a thing of the past.

This is an absolute joke that multiple slaughter houses in this area have all applied at the same
time for a variance to pollution laws. Anyone that has ever stepped foot in this area has been
subject to illegal emissions for many years.

As stated in the proposal, previous disallowed concentrations of noxious discharge are being sought
for the expanded plant, which will further violate the rights of the residents of this
neighbourhood to clean air and water and enjoyment of life.
There is no conceivable way this expansion shou

Please do not allow increased emissions in our residential neighbourhood. If you want to walk to do
any shopping in my area, you must walk past Ryding and St Helen's Meat Packers. The smell is
unbearable on any day, but in the summer it is suffocating.
