I think you should repeal exemptions brought in in 2013.

You should amend section 57.(1) 1 of ESA so that exemptions would only be allowed if they do not jeapordize survival or recovery of endangered or threatened species.

You should maintain mandatory habitat protection with no possibility of ministerial discretion.

You should maintain requirements for proponents of harmful activities to provide meaningful evidence of overall benefit to species affected.

Meaningful enforcement should be provided especially when development can have a negative effect on a threatened or endangered species.

Landscape management can be looked at - but not at the exclusion of examining each endangered species. It should be done as a way to positively conserve multiple species in a particular habitat.
