"Provide clarity to support economic development" is such a troublesome thing to see.

I'm studying evolutionary biology at the University of Toronto. The current extinction rate is 100 to 1000x the normal background rate - this is unprecedented in the history of our planet. We are in the middle of a global emergency, and yet the focus is still on 'economy'?

I don't care if businesses are maximizing their profit, and I believe most Ontario citizens would agree with me there - we don't want irreplaceable biodiversity to take a second-seat to profit that will never 'trickle down' to us.
