Please keep endangered species and their habitats as a top priority above development/farming. Animals need our protection and our voice in a world that is becoming increasingly developed. We need to focus on improving animal habitats and their populations for the health of the planet.
I think you should repeal exemptions brought in in 2013.
You should amend section 57.(1) 1 of ESA so that exemptions would only be allowed if they do not jeapordize survival or recovery of endangered or threatened species.

Please evolve your endangered species act.
Please do not allow special interest groups pressure you like they did by naming a wolf an alqonuin wolf and hereby banning hunting and trapping.

First of all...thank you for the opportunity to comment on the ESA review discussion paper. Though I support the stated intent to provide more stringent protections for species at risk, the proposals being considered will not accomplish that goal.

Sounds more likely to make things easily justified to encroach on habitats and wildlife that are more at risk by “streamlining” the process for places who want that protected land to put out.

The ESA Discussion Paper’s suggestion that current species’ listing is unclear, causes uncertainty, or not transparent is inaccurate. The process is clear.

Rather than repeat what the Canadian Wildlife Federation is suggesting, I am asking you to consider what they are suggesting. I have followed and supported the Canadian Wildlife Federation for many years, as they so intelligently protect Wildlife appropriately.

I oppose the proposal to loosen the restrictions on endangered species. Without healthy land to live on with rich biodiversity and a healthy climate, a "healthy economy" means nothing.
Protect our endangered species!
I expect my government to put nature and protection of endangered species at the forefront of any development. We are stewards for future generations and I expect you to make any decisions based on this!
Being in the midst of the largest mass extinction to date, I appreciate that Ontario's environment plan is called "Preserving and Protecting our Environment for Future Generations", however, using the ESA to "support economic development" is the exact opposite way to preserve and protect our Ontario
