I am a 4th Year Environmental Science student at York University, and have studied environmental management extensively. Rescinding environmental protection to species at risk would be a terrible mistake. Ontario has pledged to work toward being more “open for business” but, putting species at jeopardy is not the right move. Instead of back tracking and taking a shameful step away from the environmental progression Ontario has seen in recent decades, we should focus on investing and exploring emerging sustainable industries. There are many more environmentally and socially conscious ways to make Ontario “open for business”.
