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.
Half of Canada’s wildlife are in decline by a whopping 83%.
The provincial government needs to take this into consideration
Please protect our environment and our endangered species. The monetary and economic gain your government is seeking is not worth the loss of habitat that these animals need to survive. Please stop putting our province at risk for a short term boost to the economy and your egos.
The environment is Canada's most precious resource. We can find new ways to make efficiencies for business without risking the health and integrity of our natural systems. It is much more difficult and more costly to repair a damaged environment.

I am troubled by the tone of the discussion document and sense that the changes to the endangered species act will put vulnerable species at risk. I am a supporter of the Conservative party but would never put the convenience and speed of economic and development proposals ahead of the environment.

I am a lawyer and business person and fully appreciate the challenges of doing business in Ontario. But protecting the environment, including species at risk should simply be a priority.

I continue to be alarmed at loss of habitat for many species at risk in Ontario.
It would be good to hear positive statements from the government that enhance protection.
Business and industry should be able to function without harming species at risk or our environment.
With all that we know now, we should be able to find solutions that will benefit all.
