I cannot say forcefully enough but with respect: it is not right to exempt the logging industry from laws that are necessary to protect the caribou and their home, the boreal forest. Please be forward-thinking and enforce the Endangered Species at Risk Act until at least 2020. Read more

Please do not exempt logging companies from the Ontario Endangered Species Act that protects caribou and other vulnerable species and their habitat! Business interests should not always win out in these discussions. [Original Comment ID: 212540]

I am adding my voice to the many who strongly urge the Ontario government to provide ongoing protection to the caribou population. The logging industry MUST NOT BE EXEMPT from any laws or rules that protect the caribou and Boreal forest. [Original Comment ID: 212543]
