It is up to the provincial government to protect, by law, the environment and species that inhabit or migrate through Ontario. We do not need to develop every inch of land. Other species live here, too. Already, we are seeing the death and extinction of so many life forms. Read more

Absolutely not. Removal of greenbelt and animal protections in favour of industry is destroying our earth and habitats. I am appalled at Doug Ford’s making light (at the Provincial debates) of the fact he promised to protect the Greenbelt but did not. Read more

i find it disgusting that the ontario provincial government would even think about removing 35 species from the list, its disgraceful and Un-Canadian. Doug Ford wants to remove the species to make destroying the environment easier and faster which is completely unacceptable. Read more

I am writing to express my concern regarding the removal of provincial protections for at-risk bird species. These birds rely on coordinated protections and long-term recovery planning in order to survive. Read more

Immediately halt the delisting of the proposed 106 species from being protected. Ensure that independent, peer-reviewed scientific assessments guide any further and future listing changes. Restore the “Endangered Species Act”. Read more

Life on Earth has been evolving for billions of years. Every species is vital to the ecosystem it evolved in. When we remove protections from certain species, we're not only putting their individual lives at risk, we're putting the whole species and ecosystems at risk. Read more

As a lifelong PC voter, I have never been more disappointed in the Ford Government. Canada's nature is what our children should be inheriting. If this proposal goes through, I don't see myself able to vote for this government again in good conscious.

This proposal is incredibly harmful towards endangered species that we are already losing because of urban industry and infrastructure. It is important that we do not amend the endangered species act as this proposal suggests, as it will effectively put many endangered species in harms way. Read more

The natural environment of Ontario and the green belt is rapidly changing and Ontario needs to invest more into conservation of the species and their environments (dwellings, etc.) to ensure this is minimized and species that are at-risk can become no longer at-risk one day. Read more
