I understand that Ontario is…

I understand that Ontario is home to 243 species at risk of extinction. Already, routinely granted exemptions to the Act make it far too easy for development and industry to tear up and cut through critical habitat. I have seen this up close and personal in my own neighbourhood where development is squeezing out what little habitat is left. Changes to the Endangered Species Act should improve protections, not water them down even further. We, and Government in particular, have a responsibility to protect those that are vulnerable, and wildlife is a BIG part of that. Our actions should always be respectful and responsible and look at the bigger picture. I want my grandchildren's future to include a flourishing and diverse wildlife in its natural habitat.
