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.

I strongly oppose the proposed changes to the Endangered Species Act. This proposal, if implemented, will put animal habitats in need of protection at risk all in the name of economic benefit by cutting red tape.

While I can appreciate some of the delays and the need to streamline some aspects of the Species at Risk (SAR) process implemented under the Endangered Species Act, 2007 (ESA), in my experience dealing with MECP it is usually a lack of resources to effectively respond and support development applica

I am strictly against gutting the Endangered Species Act. As a biologist I know just how harmful with will be to the environment. Ontario should be leading by example with climate initiatives and instead we’re heading back in time.

We need to stop changing policies which makes it easier for development. I understand there is a housing crisis but we should not put our wildlife at risk. We complain about coyotes, rats, etc. but the reason for these issues is the fact we are taking away their homes.

This is simply a power grab by the provincial government. There is no need to speed up environmental assessments for new development sites. Progress should not come at the expense of our future.

Deeply disappointed with the disregard for Indigenous rights and for endangered wildlife in the name of the economy and private interests. There must be balance.

This is horrible - we need to be protecting species and the environment, not repealing protections and allowing for developer and government oversight loopholes!
I oppose Bill 5 and absolutely want strong environmental protections for endangered species.

I am writing to object to the changes proposed to the Endangered Species Act, 2007. The time it takes to assess development proposals is crucial in ensuring that we do not endanger our native flora and fauna any further than it has already been.
