I implore legislators to see the bigger picture -- that the wild and natural environment is connected to our civilized society through a delicate invisible string that connects ALL life on earth.

Spending time creating legislation that reducing protections on animals is deplorable in a world where animals are becoming extinct daily. You need to be ashamed of yourself for making this your legacy in government instead of protecting animals and their habitats.
I am extremely OPPOSED to this. Our biodiversity is delicate and we have done enough damage. This is selfish thinking as so much harm will be produced in the long run.
Hello,
Thank you for taking my comment.
I am gravely concerned about the new Species Conservation Act. My understanding is that it will dramatically weaken protection for the most vulnerable members of our natural world.

I completely oppose Bill 5 - as if our environment isn’t in enough jeopardy, removing endangered species from protection would be disastrous. Before even considering such thoughts, environmentalists and Indigenous Peoples should be consulted.
I am extremely opposed to anything that endangers the already unstable and faltering ecosystem here in Ontario.
Business could do better but non-exploitative options and long term thinking really isn't a factor in the changes this gov is pushing through.

We need to be protecting our endangered species not ushering their demise. 106 species at risk deserve our support. Once they're extinct there's gone forever. Please repeal these amendments to the endangered species act.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposed amendments connected to the Species Conservation Act, 2025. I am writing to express serious concerns about the overall direction of these proposals and the risk they pose to species at risk in Ontario.

I am writing to strongly oppose the proposed legislative and regulatory amendments to the Species Conservation Act, 2025. These changes risk undermining Ontario’s long-standing commitment to protecting wildlife, biodiversity, and the delicate ecosystems that sustain us all.

I oppose the proposed SCA, as it represents a significant setback for Ontario’s species conservation efforts by weakening legal protections and oversight.

What are we doing to our environment and wildlife, let alone those endangered species that already have a tenuous hold on their existence? What is being proposed is destruction for the sake of the mighty dollar with no regard for our children’s future.

Fundamentally, this act is flawed from the outset, with the definition of habitat being so narrow and unrealistic due to changes made with Bill 5. Habitat is not a single den or tree where a species sleeps.
