The changes to the endangered species act are not in the best interests of the people of Ontario but clearly an attempt by politicians to further their personal agendas. This should be opposed strongly by all of the people of Ontario.
I oppose what bill 5 represents.
I want stronger protections for endangered species and their habitats
I oppose overriding the laws in special economic zones.
I am against making shortcuts for industry with no public oversights.

I support legislation that takes a species first approach not a development first approach. Actions to protect species at risk should not be voluntary. Ecosystems, especially in raising areas should be better protected or natural systems will unravel.
I oppose Bill 5!
I oppose short cuts for industry with no public oversight.
I want stronger environmental and endangered species protections.
I oppose overwriting the law in special economic zones!

This proposal to change the Endangered Species Act will not “conserve” species at all. It will decimate the populations of endangered species and it will seriously increase the number of species that are considered endangered within Ontario.

While the challenges that Ontarians face to building prosperous and productive lives are important and critical to address, I feel this proposal threatens the foundations of the ecosystems that support us all.

The conservative government is failing Ontarians on a day to day basis. Doug Ford is a fraud and a huckster. It would be audacious to try to reframe and rewrite existing protections for the innocent souls of the animals sharing this borrowed (stolen) land.

It is vital that our natural environment here in Ontario is seen as a complete system- not isolated to a single plant and it's roots- and that it is preserved for our children and grandchildren.

I oppose Bill 5 and the proposed changes to the Endangered Species Act. I do not think we should be changing the definition of a habitat, getting rid of recovery plans or opening up special economic zones.

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.

5 bill is horrible, I am very against bill 5 ! We need to protect endangered species and conversation areas and should not be rolling back protections just to build more ! I have lived in Ontario my whole life and the beautiful conservation areas are my favourite part of the province
I am opposed to Bill 5. I disagree with fast-tracking development at the cost of our environment and the unintended consequences that come with choices that often only benefit a few and punish the rest.

As a professional ecologist I am very concerned overall about Bill 5 and the environmental aspects of ERO 025-0380 - the removal of the ESA and replacing it with another act. My concerns include;

Please protect our species and preserve our ecosystem and habitat for the ext generation. This bill will destroy these and they can never recover.
