As the Board of Directors for the Southcott Pines Park Association, representing 585 households in Lambton Shores, we are in agreement with the Resolution passed by the Ausable Bayfield Conservation Authority’s Board of Directors and its concerns about the proposed “Huron-Superior Regional Conservat

The consolidation of Conservation authorities will weaken local voices that will be most impacted by the decisions made by these groups. It would push through changes that a local region may not want or need, but the sake of some other regions priorities.

I strongly believe that the current status of the conservation authorities should be maintained. There should be no changes made. The current system is best for all regions. Thank you.
“I agree with HCA’s submission to the ERO. I am concerned about losing local decision-making and I support keeping conservation decisions rooted in our community.”
I believe it is extremely fundamentally irresponsible to attempt to consolidate so many square kilometers of land, containing dozens of unique environments and ecodistricts, into 7 province-wide zones.

I WILL START BY SAYING THIS IS A TERRIBLE TERRIBLE IDEA? What is the motivation?
This will severely reduce the necessary resources to ensure our nature lands are protected.

Keep your hands off the Hamilton Conservation Authority. You have shown a propensity for handing gifts to developers who pay for the answers they want. Why no one has gone to jail for this is disgusting. Why you keep trying to destroy the Greenbelt is even more disgusting.

Bill 68 is not what Ontarian want for their Conservation Authorities.
Municipalities not the provincial government provide on average 54% o the CA's funding.

I reside in the City of Thunder Bay, which is served by the Lakehead Region Conservation Authority, which already serves a large geographical area.

I strongly oppose the plan to reduce the number of conservation authorities in Ontario. This is clearly another way that the Ontario PC party intends to help their developer friends increase their profits at the expense of the natural environment that all Ontarians share!
Conservation Authorities should remain individualized and not grouped together. Conservation authorities prioritize conservation. We have seen time and time again that the provincial government does not care about conservation.

I vehemently oppose this proposal as I visit many conservation areas in different regions and have always been very pleased in how the current system operates and is managed. Do not change something that is working
