This is a niche private interest that has nothing to do with what should be considered a core mandate for the OMNRF. How many SAR Recovery Strategies are completed and followed? What support has been removed from stewardship initiatives that empower FREE citizen assistance? How many COs are provided necessary resources to fulfil their important resource protection responsibilities? How many positive phone calls or emails is the OMNRF receiving on landowner and wildlife interactions?

The OMNRF has not recently and is not now even close to accomplishing targets set in existing legislation such as SARA. On the surface, this is a waste of resources. Deeper, it illustrates a systematic trend towards devaluing the natural resources of all Ontario residents and neglecting their legislated responsibility. To claim that legislative change is being considered due to an inability to enforce the existing Act is farcical in today's age of citizen awareness and social media. Risk assessment policies of enforcement you adhere to would suggest as much. Tough to enforce car thefts but it's still illegal.

I have a dog that I want to train to protect turtles in Ontario of which ALL are a SAR. Can I get some land and legislation to help me?
