It is time to accept that the future needs biodiversity. Removing animal/environmental protections to pad a wallet is a losing game. Ontario has a natural land like no other and showing appreciation for the province under your care is hope you earn real respect.
I am opposed to these changes and repeal Bill 5. Endangered species and all flaura and fauna of Ontario need our protection before irreparable harm is done.
The temporary gain for your wallets pales in comparison to the permanent harm to the environment this will cause. I think what you’re doing is messed up and and you should repeal bill 5 all together.
Removing protection on endangered species will erase their existence. This plan simply harms Ontario’s biodiversity and is a step backwards in conservation. Very sad this is even a proposed plan.
The proposed changes to the Species Conservation Act, 2025 in Ontario are concerning, particularly the discretionary power given to the government to list species and the narrowed definition of "habitat".

This is just horrific and I truly hope that the government is able to protect these species and do what is right! I dream of people in power, making decisions that protect the most vulnerable including animals and the environment.
Please listen to the people! This is a request to repeal Bill 5 AND to help protect the 106 at-risk and endangered species (eg piping plover, peregrine falcon) that could have their protections completely stripped.
I oppose these changes and want Bill 5 repealed. I do not support weakening environmental protections. I value species biodiversity and want to protect habitat that supports our native species. I want to see work to protect our species at risk, not to have their protections stripped away.

I can not imagine in what world rolling back these protections would be of any benefit to anyone in the long run.
The current climate crisis we are staring down is already so catastrophic and while this may allow for quicker housing development it cant be at the expense of our future

Please repeal bill 5 and restore protection for the 106 endangered species targeted by conservationists.
A lot of people care about nature ! Thank you!!
