Please do not make the proposed changes to the Endangered Species Act.

The changes allow political interference in the scientific process of maintaining the Endangered Species list.

Animals without a home base will no longer be protected. Migratory birds passing through Ontario will no longer be protected.

Harassment of Endangered Species will be allowed.

The substitution of a registration process for the current permitting process weakens the act and it's enforcement. It will engender an "ask for forgiveness rather than permission" attitude among developers.

The act should be strengthened not weakened.
