As an Ontarian, I value and support conserving species-at-risk. I would like to see Ontario be proactive in protecting biodiversity, and enforcing that there will be no adverse effects on species through industrial and commercial activities, even if these activities provide social/economical benefits for Ontario. The mitigation plan for the permit-by-rule system should be enforced and regularly tracked for compliance. Scientists, environmental consulting companies, and/or enforcement officers should be involved/employed in site monitoring before, during, and after the industrial and commercial activities, to ensure that the mitigation plans and targets are being met. If the industries are not compliant, their activities should stop or there should be repercussions for their business, not just at the site-level.
