For the sake of my grandchildren and their generation, please don’t let them inherit a sterile environment. Please continue to protect endangered species in ON! Thank you!
We are driving species in our world to go extinct because of our inhumane practices! Do not let Canada get on the same map as others. We need to keep protecting our endangered animals, they cannot survive without our help!

The Creation of Regulatory Charge and Agency and option for payment-in-lieu should be removed. Any option for a payment-in-lieu comprises the entire point of the Endangered Species Act. I do not believe it should be in the proposal.
A ridiculous proposal putting huge decision-making power in the hands of a Minister who in all likelihood knows nothing about the environment or the management of our precious wildlife. Smacks of corporate intervention to all but the dullest of Canadians.

These changes will not help to protect species, please reconsider. It should be harder to build in an area where endangered species are present. Biodiversity is critical to ecosystem functioning and stability, and is valuable.

Under the new law, industry will be able to pay a fee instead of doing their part to protect species that will be killed or have their habitats destroyed by the project.

You need to be protecting these species. I oppose your changes and strongly encourage you to reconsider going forward with this plan. The biodiversity of our country is at stake and the proposed changes will surely be detrimental.
Why would any government “support” economic development over species at risk ? You are just creating more conflict with the populace for ??
And why would more “ decision making “ be given to any government employee ? I thought we were

I understand some of these proposed amendments. For instance being able to delay the protections (although 3 years seems like a significant delay), while current business owners work to address concerns over newly listed species.

Taking away environmental and species-at-risk protections is not the answer. Allowing developers to pay to disregard conservation measures is completely ludicrous.

This proposal gives too much discretionary action to the minister overseeing the protection for species at risk. Protections for these species should not be discretionary as personal biases, prejudice and party politics will come into play.

Our animals are as important as we are. Stop cutting down trees and killing them.
Stop taking from them. Share and preserve and hope to heaven you haven’t ruined it already. You need a lesson on kindness not making money. You can’t eat money and when that’s all that is left, try eating it????
