To Whom it May Concern - As a citizen, I demand strong/stronger protections for species at risk and their habitats. Schedule 5 in its entirety must be removed from Bill 108. The government and especially Mr. Ford have to stop this greed and destruction - leave a better legacy - it is not all about money. Start to think about your chance to make a positive mark on the future!

The proposed changes would lead to delays in protecting species at risk – delays of up to three years for newly listed species – at the discretion of the Minister. The proposed changes would also weaken Ontario’s science-based approach to listing which species receive protection. The proposal weakens virtually all aspects of Ontario’s Endangered Species Act and could put development and industrial interests ahead of species at risk. These changes are inconsistent with the purpose of the Act, which is to protect and recover species at risk in Ontario.
