I think that scientists are the ones that can determine if endangered species need protection and how to do it. This decisions shouldn't be left to politicians as they don't have any idea of all the things that are at risk. Thank you

I am supportive of the government addressing the 10 year review of the Endangered Species Act, to ensure that Ontario has a healthy economy, while creating flexibility and efficiently protecting species at risk and their habitat. After 10 years, this is a necessary undertaking.

This is an initiative that needs to help protect out green areas in populated areas and have specific requirements that when an area is cleared for development the developer MUST replant a minimum of 1.5 - 2 times the number of trees that were removed. Read more

As has become apparent with the new Ontario government, it's all about being, "Open for Business". This review of the Endangered Species Act is part of that plan. Reading the Discussion Paper makes it clear that this is the case and not some "conspiracy theory." Read more
