Yes, expanding the Protected Areas in Ontario is an excellent proposal. With the ongoing loss of biodiversity, we need to r\protect more of our natural environment,
I am strongly in favour of all of the proposed additions to these provincially protected areas. I have frequented or occasioned to visit several including Pretty River and Forks of the Credit in particular.

I regularly visit the Pretty River Provincial Park to hike or snowshoe, by myself, or with family and friends. It is my go-to place to bring out-of-town visitors too. I have been very concerned about possible plans to build homes on land surrounding the park and the negative impact that would have.

Protecting the remaining natural areas in Ontario is crucial to the health and sustainability of Ontario citizens. I fully support these expansions in Provincial Parks and urge the province to consider more.

This is a tremendous idea and should go forward post haste! This area is not only lovely, but ecologically vital towards protecting a wildlife corridor. I support this measure wholeheartedly.
The Ministry of Environment, Climate, and Parks (MECP) is proposing to expand 27 protected areas across Ontario, a crucial step in safeguarding our biodiversity and creating an ecological corridor in South Georgian Bay.

I support the expansion of Pretty River Park. It is an important area on the Escarpment for providing protected habitat to support diminishing animal and plant diversity.
This area is important for our population as well as protecting the environment. Pretty River has a very important role in the ecosystem of the area. I completely support this initiative.

As the urban population of Ontario expands it parks become more important as recreation and environmental inspirations to its people. But they are becoming so congested that it is increasingly difficult to use them.

We need protected areas, for all of life, human and other-than-human, more than ever. Let’s protect this precious area while we can … there’s no going back!
