Absolutely insane. Only thing Doug Ford could come up with is destroy our wetlands,kill habitat,don't worry about growing food or flooding is to build more houses . Come on ,we all know these homes are for immigration.Who cares about growing food,we don't need land for that..

I strongly oppose Bill 5. Ontario should prioritize ecological stewardship to protect our environment and species for our country now and future generations. Bill 5 is bad for our environment and bad for our people, especially indigenous people.

I am incredibly concerned and outraged by the replacement of the Endangered Species Act. Politicians and bureaucrats have neither the education, expertise or impartiality to replace scientists in deciding which plants and animals should be protected.

This proposal sets a dangerous precedent that the delicate ecological balance of Ontario's wildlife and natural environments can be sold to the highest bidderon the whim of a single political party, with limited insight from any actual environmental scientists, conservationists, indigenous people's

The Orwellian name for Bill 5: the 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐎𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨 𝐛𝐲 𝐔𝐧𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐄𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐦𝐲 𝐀𝐜𝐭 sounds "double-plus good" for the same oligarchs this government has served since 2018.

The process to obtain certain permits under the Endangered Species Act is slow and complex for good reason - to protect endangered species and Ontario's environment. No to Bill 5!
Bill 5 is an awful and destructive bill that will seriously hinder conservation of Ontario's ecosystems. It violates indigenous treaty rights. It reduces the ability of government to enforce the Endangered Species Act and be held accountable.

I oppose strongly this Bill because I care about our future generations who are at risk of not having access to wild Spaces and creatures. Thanks to the endangerment of animals and wildlife in this bill. I oppose this bill because it’s not necessary.

There is no economy or society with the environment; without our planet. We need to do everything we can to protect the life of all species in our world. I support this proposal to secure stronger protections for our environment. I oppose Bill 5.
I'm writing to you as an actively involved constituent of King-Vaughan, and also as a supporter in advancing a clean, sustainable and cost-effective power grid across Ontario and beyond into Quebec, Manitoba and all of Canada.

I disagree with this proposal. It does not make sense for proponents to start developing before knowing whether their project will have an environmental impact.
As well, if the government is able to edit the list of species at risk, they can choose to remove species which hinder development.

I am writing as a constituent of University-Rosedale and a concerned Ontarian regarding the alarming changes proposed in Bill 5, The Protect Ontario by Unleashing our Economy Act, 2025.

I am writing to express deep concern and opposition to the proposed changes to Ontario’s Endangered Species Act (ESA), as outlined in the Protect Ontario by Unleashing our Economy Act, 2025.

Framing the current Endangered Species Act as doing nothing but "causing unnecessary delays and costs for housing, transit, and critical infrastructure" is dismissive of the inherent nuance associated with conservation efforts, and the time it takes to meaningfully effectuate them.

I do not support the repeal of the Endangered Species Act. Repealing the Endangered Species Act and replacing it with a registration scheme is akin to legislating out of the Ontario government's duty to consult obligations by removing the government decision that would require consultation.
