I live on a farm that has a protected area designated as Provincially significant wetland by the Ministry of Natural Resources. I'm very happy about this and work to make other areas of my farm healthier for all wildlife. It is very important that we encourage more habitat for wildlife, especially endangered to live out their lives as nature intended. We all benefit from a healthy environment. I am the 5th generation on my family farm and in my lifetime I've seen changes in wildlife and they are not good changes. For example crayfish in the Twenty Mile creek are no longer living. Very sad indeed. The city keeps gobbling up land and encroaching on/into sensitive areas. I don't understand why the Province does not encourage more apartment/high rise homes. The population is growing but the amount of land is not. Building these single family homes in these cramped surveys is ridiculous. Build up and have more people in one smaller foot print. We only get one chance to make it right and there are plenty of examples of getting it wrong. Lets learn from those mistakes. Take a little more time and think about all of the living things on earth and not just the very selfish humans who want to make a quick buck $. Please think before you kill our legacy to our future generations!
