I think that protecting at-risk species is an incredibly important part of Ontario's environmental legislation. In your discussion paper, it is clear that your bias lies toward the economy - the upsetting part is that this is at the expense of the environment.

Just because providing benefit to a species may take a longer period of time does not make it any less valuable. When future generations must clean up the environmental mess this government will no doubt make, it may be too late. Please consider how important the livelihood of these animals are, before you permit expansion on the lands they call home. Born and raised in Northern Ontario, I consider myself extremely lucky to live in a province with such beautiful nature and I truly hope that in the future, this will be maintained.
