Ontario’s Endangered Species Act is under siege! Please remove Schedule 5 from Bill 108, in its entirety.
This government is so short sighted in its approach to protecting wildlife. They seem more interested in supporting developers than protecting vulnerable species.

Hello:
I wish to provide the following comments on the proposed changes to the Endangered Species Act:
1. Assessing species at risk and listing them on the Species at Risk in Ontario List

Ontario's at risk species need protection, not money.
I want strong protections for species at risk, and their habitats.
Schedule 5 needs to be removed in its entirety from Bill 108.
Please cancel the proposed changes to the Endangered Species Act under Schedule 5. We need strong protection for wildlife in Ontario and businesses should not be able to buy exemptions to the ESA.
I strongly support a long term Section 55 Regulatory Exemption for the forest sector which recognizes the Crown Forest Sustainability Act (CFSA) as an equivalent process to the Endangered Species Act (ESA).

I visit Ontario annually for work and leisure. I chose wildlife watching for recreation. I strongly oppose the changes being proposed to the province's Endangered Species Act, as brought forward in Schedule 5 of Bill 108.

It is a mix of dangerous arrogance and pure stupidity to change or remove a y current definitions from the Act. I am not sure what one is trying to accomplish by doing so.
I strongly opposes proposed changes to Ontario’s Endangered Species Act (ESA), as brought forward in Schedule 5 of Bill 108. The changes would remove essential legal protections for species at risk and for the habitats that sustain them.

Species are at risk! Regulations to protect and support them must not be reduced or stopped. As Climate and habitats change as a result we are endangering them. Humans are endangered as we endanger other species.
The forest sector requires a permanent section 55 regulation that recognizes the Crown Forest Sustainability Act as an equivalent process to the Endangered Species Act. I do not support the proposed section 18 “harmonization” option for the forest sector.
Do not change the ESA. I strongly support a long term section 55 regulatory exemption for the forest sector which recognizes the CFSA. I do no support the attempts at harmonization of the CFSA and ESA. Endangered species need the protection they have. Do not lower restrictions currently in place.
