There is not enough legal protection of endangered species and, yet, there is a proposal to reduce it even more?! This makes no sense to me. We are dependant on what is left of biodiversity. This needs to be taken into consideration when new permits are requested.

I urge the Ontario government to withdraw Bill 5 in its entirety and instead work with environmental experts, Indigenous leaders and the public to strengthen — not dismantle — our systems of environmental protection.

Protecting nature is not a barrier to economic growth. It’s the foundation of a healthy, resilient and just society.
