This is an initiative that needs to help protect out green areas in populated areas and have specific requirements that when an area is cleared for development the developer MUST replant a minimum of 1.5 - 2 times the number of trees that were removed.
This past waterfowl hunting season we have noticed a decline in the number of ducks and geese that were migrating and when going through southern Ontario a lot of development has taken away land and wet lands that need to be protected.
If increase in enforcement can be accompanied with this, this will help protect out water ways and bodies as well as wet lands, native grass lands, and wooded areas from poachers, and others who are littering or dumping on these lands and affecting the habitats of the animals that call this great province home.
