The Ontario Horticultural…

The Ontario Horticultural Association is very much in favour of protecting our environment. We are aware of species of plants, insects and animals that are at risk, as there are places in Ontario where some of these are no longer found. We support the Ojibway movement in protecting the plants, etc. that are still living in this area. This beautiful natural park is home to migrating birds, butterflies such as the Monarch and other pollinators that are very essential to our every day life. Ojibway is unique to Canada with its prairie and over 4000 species on that property, 160 Species are at risk, and 21 are on the endangered list including plants, insects, and amphibians. We remind the committee working on the Endangered Species Act to look at the species at risk throughout the province and to tighten regulations so that all future generations will be able to see and enjoy the life that surrounds us.
