I vehemently oppose replacing the 2007 Endangered Species Act with the Species Conservation Act, which will erode protection for our vulnerable species at risk.

This is a gross misuse of power to strip incredibly important conservation efforts. We are the world around us. If we continue to destroy habitats without regard, we suffer for that. The absolute lack of accountability to anything beyond making an extra dollar is disgusting. Do better.

DO NOT GUT THE ENDANGERED SPECIES ACT. This proposal is basically telling developers that instead of asking for permission in advance, to just go ahead and destroy habitats of endangered species then ask for forgiveness afterwards.

I am deeply opposed to the weakening of this Act. This reflects a continuing disregard for the environment that has been a cornerstone of the Ford government's policies. How a government can ignore the continuing (and accelerating) decline of all classes of species and refuse to take REAL action

I am saying no to Bill 5 as any weakening of the endangered species act is opening the door to eradicating our precious wildlife and their habitats.

The proposed definition of “habitat” is an exercise in logical absurdity. For animals, the definition of habitat is basically a cage. The restriction of a plant’s habitat to the “critical root zone” is basically the definition of a plant pot.

I am writing to express my strong opposition to the proposed amendments to the Endangered Species Act (ESA) under Bill 5, the Protect Ontario by Unleashing Our Economy Act, 2025.

I urge you to please reconsider Bill 5 and instead focus on maintaining strong environmental laws that prevent extinction and preserve Ontario’s natural heritage.

Bill 5 would repeal Ontario's Endangered Species Act, 2007, marking the end of most meaningful provincial protections for endangered, threatened and special concern species in Ontario.

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.

Replacing the Endangered Species Act, 2007 with the proposed Species Conservation Act, 2025 is a huge step in the wrong direction. The protection of species and habitat , protects people.

I object to the proposed amendments to the Endangered Species Act. The province has an obligation to protect habitat and species at risk, and there is no good economic argument to be made for developing crucial habitats.

I strongly disagree with this proposal. We should be focusing our attention on preserving green spaces and protecting wildlife rather than driving it away. We already live in a concrete jungle world, we need more green spaces
Why do those involved with showing an ongoing connection & caring for the environment and our sustainability on the whole as a society not agree with your streamlining approach? Could it be your historical modus operandi of a self-centred & short term focus ?
