Providing protection for the "dwelling place" of birds is a fantastic way to ensure that very soon there will be none of those at all. If the habitat itself is not given the same protection, then expect the extirpation of many species. Read more

I understand that we need to build more housing fast, but there are plenty of places and ways to do that without weakening protections for endangered species. We're in a major extinction event and losing biodiversity is dangerous for the planet and everyone who lives on it. Read more

Ontario has more than 230 species that are at risk, threatened, or endangered. There are more that are now completely extirpated. This bill will only hasten the extirpation and extinction of species that make us unique and special. Read more

As a resident, I am stronly opposed to this Bill. There is not enough care for the environment already. We cannot afford to put the Earth in jeopardy by haphazardly building. Read more

As an Ontario resident I am extremely concerned about the proposed changes to the Endangered Species Act. We are in a global biodiversity crisis.

This will be seriously detrimental to our ecosystems and the environment. As a concerned citizen I won't support any party or business who supports this proposal or profits from the greedy destruction of our habitat.

This will not protect the endangered species and will make it easier for people to destroy the habitats of these animals. While it is understandable that their habitats can place a halt on operations, this is not the way to make the changes needed. This will cause more harm than good. Read more

I strongly oppose Bill 5, the Protect Ontario by Unleashing Our Economy Act. This legislation poses a serious threat to Ontario’s natural heritage, democratic processes and Indigenous rights. Read more

Like too many legislative proposals, Bill 5 proposes multiple changes across many acts, making it exceedingly hard to understand the implications. That alone is not good practice, but there are two specific serious concerns, which I was able to see in the proposed “Species Conservation Act”. Read more
