I very strongly disagree with your ministry’s proposal to allow aggregate pits and quarries in the habitat of threatened and endangered species throughout the region’s Natural Heritage System.Under existing rules, aggregates operations can already occur elsewhere in the Natural Heritage System, but not in the habitat of threatened or endangered species. Since the purpose of the Natural Heritage System is to protect biodiversity, the province must protect these lands from being dug up for pits and quarries.
