I am appalled at the proposed bill. Now more than ever we should be protecting species at risk and preserving the habitats that we ALL depend on for survival. Economic development does not need to mean unhindered environmental degradation!!!! Read more

I oppose this bill as it removes what meager protections we have in place for our most at risk wildlife. Additionally it's further proof of how this premier seeks to undermine any law that limits his or his associates ability to make profit at cost to the public.

I do NOT support Bill 5. Protect the environment! Serve Ontarians for now and for the future, ethically and sustainably for the environment. Corporations don't deserve to have an easier time destroying our natural habitats/ecosystems for profit. Read more

The process should be complicated and take a long time in order to stop those self-interested groups in destroying our environment for the sake of their pocketbook. Our top priority should be the environment. We don't need more houses, we need people to stop hoarding houses and resources

We can unleash our economy without making amendments to the ESA or repealing the ESA. We are talking about endangered species, we don't have the right to threaten their existence. There has to be a better way, even if it costs a little more or takes more time. Read more

The governments’ role is to propose, vote on and implement policies. Let the scientists and professionals investigate and dictate what’s an endangered species or not. Read more

I am writing to express my strong opposition to the proposed interim changes to the Endangered Species Act, 2007 (ESA). The ESA was enacted to provide science-based, legal protection to Ontario’s most vulnerable species and their habitats. Read more

Cancel this bill. The provincial government already has more power than they deserve and we need stronger protection for endangered species and the environment. I don't support governments using their power to change acts to push their mandates. Protect Ontario by protecting our land
