I am very concerned about the proposal to reduce 36 conservation authorities to just seven. A Conservation Authority needs to be local in order to make educated and appropriate local decisions.

I do not agree with the new proposed plan. Everyone is re-inventing the wheel these days. Why tamper with a system that works? Each municipality has worked very hard for years to foster the present day conservation authorities. To have all that formed into a larger entity is wrong.
HCA is doing a great job! I feel joining the conservation authorities together would create more havoc and accomplish less. It is not broke. There's no need to fix it!
I support HCA’s submission to the ERO. I am afraid of losing great results of their work for people and local environment. I am worried about reduced local decision-making and believe conservation decisions should continue to be made within our community.

I wholeheartedly agree with the HCA's stance on the issue of not creating provincial agencies to overlook environmental areas of which they have no formal knowledge.

Consolidating all of these groups will do nothing to protect these conservation areas. Local groups understand their ecosystems better than a distant impartial board ever could.

My concerns with merging are as follows:

Lakehead Regional conservation area does not need to be combined with any other conservation area. It is covering a large enough area as is and does not include similar geography topography or population as the area that is proposed for area to merge with.
I am very much against this merger.

Why I'm NOT Supporting the Proposed Merger as a resident in the Hamilton-Wentworth region where the Hamilton Conservation Authority (HCA) presently operates:
The Province has not provided evidence showing why the merger is needed.
