For the fourth area of focus on the “Authorization Process”:
One of the act’s main challenges is that it adds delay towards activities subject to other regulatory framework such as Ontario’s Crown Forest Sustainability Act. Instead of delaying such activities and causing complications, finishing an activity in progress should be done first, unless a species needs urgent protection for Ontario’s Endangered Species Act to be prioritized.
Another problem is that enforcing regulations across all Ontario is inconsistent, thus, severely taxing companies producing more waste than they’re permitted to is very important. There needs to be certain guidelines enforced so that it's fair across Ontario.
