On Monday, March 31, 2025, during the Good Roads Conference at the Royal York Hotel in downtown Toronto, MEA Board members and staff met with the Honourable Todd McCarthy, Minister of the Environment, Conservation & Parks.
The MEA had requested a delegation with the Minister to address the MECP's plans to revoke the current Municipal Class Environmental Assessment process and replacing it with a new Regulation (Municipal Project Assessment Process - MPAP).
MEA expressed its support to the Minister for the implementation of the new regulation as soon as possible. MEA also requested, the Ministry provide as much advance notice as possible on the implementation of the MPAP so MEA can start work to publish a new User Guide to replace the MCEA User Guide.
