Changes to the Endangered Species Act should improve protections, not water them down even further. We need protections that lead to recovery for species-at-risk in Ontario– we don’t need changes that will drive more species to extinction.
Specifically:
- Tighten exemptions that make it too easy for business and industry to harm critical habitat.
- Create clearly defined no-go zones that protect wildlife while creating efficiencies for business by making it clear where development won’t be permitted.
Half of Canada’s wildlife are in decline – by 83 per cent. Our provincial government must be part of the solution.
Review the act, yes, and make it stronger to protect our wildlife for future generations!
