We need to do as much as we can as soon as we can. We MUST stop delaying saving the incredibly important creatures on the ground and in the air.
It can't always be about humans. It has to be about the rest of the living fauna .
It's our job as humans to protect them and their environment.

I am deeply concerned about Bill 5. Just it's name "Protect Ontario by Unleashing our Economy Act" scares me. You are not protecting Ontario by unleashing anything. The economy is not above the law.

Having researched and reviewed the proposed Bill 5, I find myself in opposition to it and do not believe it should be passed into law, for reasons I explain below

I strongly oppose Bill 5. I want stronger environmental protections, not shortcuts for industry. Our land should be protected, not sold at the cost of endangered species.
I oppose Bill 5 and request its immediate withdrawal.

I oppose shortcuts for industry with no public and regulatory oversight.

This is completely unacceptable. With a faster changing climate and immediate threats to biodiversity, reducing the approach to endangered species is completely backwards. How can we be proud to be Canadian when this is happening?
I find it egregious that we’re still having these discussions? Did Ford learn nothing from the Green Belt scandal? We do not need to develop or remove protections on these lands to make it easier for crooked developers to continue to destroy our public lands. There is enough land already.

I oppose bill 5. I want stronger environmental and endangered species protection. I oppose short cuts for industry with no public oversight. And I oppose overriding the law in special economic zones.
There are so many aspects of this proposal that are extremely detrimental to environmental and conservation work in Ontario. The Recovery Plans and Documents section of the proposal fails to acknowledge the importance of the review process for species listing.

I strongly oppose this Bill, I do not believe it aligns with Ontarian values and does not protect our home on Native land. It is short-sighted and dangerous to our environment.
I find it extremely short sited and dangerous to practically gut the Endangered Species Act 2007 and replace it with a toothless Species Conservation Act 2025. Leaving decisions on protecting species up to industry and politicians is not wise policy.

I strongly oppose Bill 5, the Protect Ontario by Unleashing Our Economy Act. This legislation poses a serious threat to Ontario’s natural heritage, democratic processes and Indigenous rights.

This bill proposal is incredibly disappointing, reckless and a significant step backwards for wildlife protections in Canada. It is absolutely not in the best interests of Canadians and the consequences will harm current and future generations alike.

I do not want to see land development go unchecked at the expense of harm to protected species or environmentally sensitive ecosystems. Our planet is in a crisis and we need to have an eye on it's future health in order to ensure humanity can be sustained by it.

I have a deep concern and strong opposition to the proposed changes to Ontario’s Endangered Species Act. This legislation exists to protect the biodiversity and natural heritage that make Ontario such a vibrant and livable province.

I oppose bill 5 as I want stronger environmental protections for the protection of endangered species in Ontario and oppose creating shortcuts for any industry's that may hinder this.
