I strongly oppose the proposed changes to the Endangered Species Act, 2007 and the creation of the Species Conservation Act, 2025 as outlined.

I believe that as currently written, the proposed legislation is unworkable and will fail to achieve its stated goals. In particular, the shift from approval before the fact to enforcement after the fact will require an increase in funding for enforcement agencies.

There are several very concerning things in the proposed legislation that make it seem like a government power grab rather than a serious attempt to improve the legislation. For example, the increased ability for the government to overrule the decisions of COSSARO.

I'm against this charge. We need to take care of our environment and ecosystems, we only get one chance at this. Please keep protecting endangered species.
I'm outraged at the "Proposed interim changes to the Endangered Species Act, 2007 and a proposal for the Species Conservation Act, 2025"
These changes would end Endangered Species Protections and attack Clean Energy.
This is not acceptable. This is not the kind of Ontario I want to live in.

It is the responsibility of the government to protect endangered and threatened species, not relinquish the obligation.
This is not good change.
Do not do this.

It is obvious that destroying the habitat surrounding the immediate nest or 'living vicinity' about an endangered species member is destruction of the ecosystem that permits that member to thrive.
First the greenbelt and now this to sidestep any protection of Ontario’s nature. There was a reason this legislation was implemented and it was to protect what we have in Ontario, so that development can be carefully reviewed.

C'mon Doug really? You know you won't hold companies accountable and so many species that make Ontario what it is, beautiful, will disappear.

I strongly opposes the changes being made to the Endangered Species Act. The proposed changes will weaken the provinces biodiversity and put additional species at increased risk. This approach of putting economic decisions above scientific realities is short sighted.
