Absolutely not. Wildlife protection is extremely important to preserve what little of it we have left in Ontario. We need to preserve it. What infrastructure do we need? The condo market has already cooled.

Endangered species and species at risk of endangerment cannot protect themselves from urban sprawl and the development of more infrastructure.

If changes are made to the Species act it will have huge impacts on our native wildlife, Removing Harrassment from the Act means you are allowing people to interrupt the way of species natural living and what they have left.

I have several strong objections to the proposed changes to the Endangered Species Act. Upon reading this proposal I have noted:
- the proposed changed would establish a new Species Conservation Program to support voluntary initiatives like habitat restoration that protect and conserve species

I, and every other biologist, oppose this bill. This will lead to the destruction of vital ecosystems, which will cause species’ to decline. A habitat is not only the area an animal breeds in; it’s where they hunt, sleep, patrol and mate in.

I strongly oppose this new legislation. The actions that these changes will allow will not only cause irreparable damage to Ontario's environment and ecology, but also expose Ontario to the significant cost of multiple lawsuits.

This is not acceptable. Ontario should be a leader and show the world how to balance the need to protect the environment while still utilizing our natural resources to boost our economy. Your scorched Earth policy is putting short term gains over long term success!
This proposal will be devastating to Ontario's biodiversity and will lead to the destruction of sensitive and valuable ecosystems across the province.

This is a very short-sighted plan. Letting developers start work without any assessment will mean that it's too late to prevent the development if it proves to be outside of what is permitted. Not requiring an advisory committee will lead people to make uniformed decisions.

This is an absolutely diabolical plan to strip Ontario of much of its natural beauty. I understand the need for homes and expansion of or towns, cities, and space. However this expansion should not come at the cost of Ontario's future.

I do not support many of the items put forward by this change.
The government should not have the ability to add or remove protected species at will without consultation with scientists and experts.

As generally right leaning on issues, I just cannot comprehend why the conservatives have such a poor understanding of how vital it is to protect these areas.

These protections should not and cannot be allowed to be weakened. I strongly oppose the weakening of the Endangered Species Act and oppose the proposal for the Species Conservation Act. We need to uphold our biodiversity and our ecological and environmental health with stronger protections.

Erasing the endangered species act would cause irreparable damage to our already suffering ecosystems. This is a decision fuelled by corporate greed, not for the betterment of Ontario and its citizens.

I am disgusted and disappointed by these proposed changes to the Endangered Species Act, and if they pass, I will not vote for Doug Ford or the Conservative Party of Ontario ever again.
