We need more environmental protections, not less. And reopen the Ontario Science Centre -- in its original location -- while you're at it! Enough with money being funneled to Ford's developer friends!
"a new approach" = I'm going to let the rich bleed my province dry of it's natural resources and go against the wishes of indigenous people more than we already have. Be for real. This is an insane move by Mr Monopoly man.
ERO 025-0380
As a Canadian citizen residing in Ontario, I’m submitting these comments regarding ERO 025-0380, “Proposed interim changes to the Endangered Species Act, 2007 and a proposal for the Species Conservation Act, 2025”.

I do not support the passing of Bill 5 - removing the safeguards in place in favour of offering developers and other proponents leeway to shirk responsibilities related to environmental stewardship and management is incredibly irresponsible, and damaging.

We are in a global biodiversity crisis. In Ontario alone, more than 230 plants and animals are at risk. The healthy forests, waters and wetlands species at risk rely on sustain all Ontarians.
I urge your government to:

These are ineffective protections for wild and endangered species. For the animals especially protecting the den is not helpful unless there is also a safe way for the animal to reach it's den, restricting the protections to just the immediate area is the same as blocking that animal from it's den.

Housing, transport and critical infrastructure all take a back seat to wilderness, wildlife and the environment in my world.
Business and profit are ruining this province.
Government is for the people, not for profit.

Skipping environmental protections because they're "inconvenient" is not the way to go. I think beyond the next quarter's profits and short term gains, and instead think about the world that we want our children to inherit.

This proposal appears to be stripping protections for both flora and fauna in favour of unchecked development. Current structures remain vacant and misused.

This allows for some many loopholes that the Ford government and corporations will take advantage of. This does not protect or benefit Ontario residents.
The current approach to the protection and conservation of species at risk is insufficient to achieve the goal of protecting lives in Ontario. This new proposal criminally prioritizes housing, transit and infrastructure ahead of lives. This is shameful and must not proceed.
1. Unleashing The Economy? The term suggests freedom, but in reality, it could mean unchecked development. This shift in approach would lead to unintended consequences for our ecosystems and biodiversity.

I am writing to express that I strongly object to Ontario’s proposed interim amendments to the Endangered Species Act, 2007 (ESA), and the proposal for the new Species Conservation Act, 2025.

I oppose Bill 5.
I oppose shortcuts with no public overdight.
I want stronger environmental and endangered spiecies protections.
I oppose overwriting the law in special economic zones.

I want this bill stopped immediately. It is
undemocratic and gives the conservatives the power to do whatever they want to private land wetland, and endangered species. it needs to be stopped immediately.
