Wasaga Beach Provincial Park…

Wasaga Beach Provincial Park isn’t just a summer destination, it’s one of the last remaining nesting grounds for the endangered Piping Plover in Ontario. These tiny shorebirds have made a fragile comeback since 2007, thanks to years of careful stewardship and protection.
The land the government has proposed selling Wasaga Beach Provincial Park for development. includes critical nesting habitat for the Piping Plover, which could be lost forever if this goes through.

I’m writing to demand you withdraw your dangerous proposal to sell off sections of Wasaga Beach Provincial Park, which includes vital nesting habitat for the endangered Piping Plover.

Proposed changes to the Provincial Parks and Conservation Reserves Act would not only jeopardize the Piping Plovers at Wasaga Beach but would open the door to privatizing all Ontario parks.

Ontario’s parks are for the public. They exist to protect endangered species, sensitive ecosystems, and the natural spaces that connect our communities and shield us from climate disaster – not to benefit wealthy, well-connected developers.
I urge you to:

- Withdraw the proposal to sell off Wasaga Beach Provincial Park
- Withdraw the proposed changes to the Provincial Parks and Conservation Reserves Act
- Reinstate the Endangered Species Act and strengthen protections for the Piping Plover and other at-risk species
- Keep Ontario parks in public hands forever

Protect the Piping Plovers. Protect Ontario’s parks. Stop your privatization agenda.
