Pursuant to Ontario's review of the Endangered Species Act I urge the following actions:

Repeal the 2013 exemptions for the mining, commercial development, forestry, hydro and forestry industries

Require compensation resulting in direct benefit to affected species when harmful activities are permitted

Maintain mandatory habitat protection for endangered and threatened species

Maintain the current process for listing species based on the best available scientific information, including community knowledge and Indigenous traditional knowledge.
