The desired outcomes of the proposal look excellent. Please do not let business trump species at risk! Someone needs to stand up for these species, many of which are so sensitive to development and disturbances. I understand that development and making things easy for businesses is important for our province, but so is biodiversity and saving some of the precious unique species that we have here. After working in a provincial park for four years, I was astonished at the number of people who had never seen or even heard of so many of our species at risk. These species need our help! The Act needs to be more strict, with no exemptions. These species can't afford to be the afterthought or just a barrier to the inevitable construction. I will be horribly sad to see the Ford government make negative changes to this Act.
