I strongly oppose the bill that will block the endangered species Act that was a strong step in the right direction! Surely the Ontario government can continue to investigate any industrial proposal that has been made in a responsible although more brief way before any serious mistakes are made.

This is the last thing Ontario needs. Ontarians care about our wildlife, this bill cares about making money for those in power. It makes me sick that we have to fight for these rights for a clean, healthy environment constantly.
I do not support this bill, or any kind of short cuts that involve decimating our environmental protections (which are already too lax as it is).

Leave our environment alone. it's the number one reason most of northern Ontario is so amazing. Stop trying to destroy the environment for the profits of a few.
I strongly oppose Bill 5. It will not benefit anyone other than major corporations and the wealthy. In addition it will actively harm the land and endangered species and most importantly it impedes Indigenous sovereignty.
Bill 5 should not pass

I oppose Proposed interim changes to the Endangered Species Act, 2007 and a proposal for the Species Conservation Act, 2025.
There're other ways to solve housing crisis without compromising endangered species protection.

I am strongly opposed to building/development shortcuts which harm the greenbelt, endangered species, disregard municipal concerns, and take a shortsighted approach to preservation of Ontario's natural beauty and resources.
Hello,
I am a resident here in Toronto centre. I am writing today because I do not agree with the proposed changes to bill 5 that have been brought forward by Stephen Lecce.

The protection of Ontario’s environment and endangered wildlife is of utmost importance to the province. Ontario is renowned for its natural beauty, which should be prioritized over the industrialization and urban expansion this new act wants to implement.

The Endangered Species Act needs strengthening, not weakening. All species of turtle found in Ontario are endangered, frogs are at risk, and the "once in a lifetime" storms have been becoming more frequent.

I understand the need for housing and road structures. However, when did 'red tape' become a bad work? These regulations were made to protect our environment, our heritage, and our people.

There is no evidence that sacrificing our biodiversity, and running roughshod over our most precious and vulnerable natural assets will benefit Ontarians. The only thing that has been ‘unleashed’ with this bill is an irrational vendetta against vulnerable ecosystems, plants, and animals.

Bill 5 is a blatant rollback of environmental protections in Ontario. Replacing the Endangered Species Act with a watered-down Species Conservation Act strips away meaningful safeguards for at-risk wildlife.
