If Doug Ford feels that Canada is not for sale why is he selling Ontario's most protected wetlands where endangered species lives off to people so they can build spas at Friday harbor?

The absolute last thing that should be done right now is this, how is this a priority for the Ford government? Please leave nature alone. I have seen what was done with clear cutting Ontario place. Awful. We need nature the most right now.

I oppose these changes.
Chipping away at environmental protections and employing a shoot first, ask questions later approach to wild life conservation looks ill-advised.

The endangered species act provides protection to a variety of species, including both the actual endangered ones and non endangered species that share similar habitats. Removing these protections would be catastrophic for thousands of species and habitats.

I oppose these changes in their entirety. Environmental protections and bureaucracy exist for a reason. Species protections exist for a reason. It's absurd that the Ontario Government would sell future generations short to make a quick buck now. We need to invest in our environment and future.
This is not okay!! Protecting our wildlife is one of the things that makes me proud to be Canadian. Taking this away makes me feel VERY ashamed of my province. Already so many things have made me ashamed of what the premier has done to this province.

This is harmful to the environment and a clear case of corruption in the Ontario government for developer kickbacks. The people do not support these changes.
I am writing to express my vehement opposition to the Ontario government’s reckless dismantling of the Endangered Species Act and wildlife protections under Premier Doug Ford.

As an evolutionary ecologist and Ontario resident, I unequivocally oppose the proposed repeal of the Endangered Species Act. In the midst of a climate crisis, dismantling protections for at-risk species is reckless and short-sighted.

As a Canadian citizen and Ontario resident, I strongly oppose any of these changes. Our current regulations exist for the sake of conservation and changes will harm our environment.
No thank you Doug Ford. As an Ontario born tax payer, reducing the protection of endangered species is not the direction I want to see our province move toward.
Biodiversity loss is one of the greatest threats to human kind worldwide.

This is not what Ontario voters want. Do not sell out our environmental protections - if I see this government turn around after and sell off huge parcels of land, the only conclusion to make is that you are corrupt.

In no way should the act be passed. This is clear definition of ecocide, and at the end we Ontarians will bear the consequences of loss habitats and animal species just because Doug Ford want to fatten up the purses of his developer friends.

This amendment is a terrible idea. We do not do enough to protect biodiversity. Rolling back protections is short sighted and will result in irreversible damage.
I am a citizen who cares very much for the wildlife around me
It is important that this wildlife is there for people after me to enjoy
Don't do this

It is incredibly shortsighted to remove protections for animals and our environment to fast track other projects - recent years have seen unprecedented weather shifts and encroachment of wild animals into urban areas as a result of destruction of their habitats.
