I strongly disapprove of any weakening of protections for endangered species in Ontario. We are in a world-wide climate crisis and biodiversity crisis. Loss of critical green spaces to resource development and urban expansion hurts everyone. Read more

This proposal sounds like using the US trade / economic situation as an excuse to gut and politicize environmental protections. If passed, it will probably be used as the means to auction off the greenbelt to Ford's land developer buddies and donors. 100% opposed!

The conservative government of Ontario is mercilessly chipping away at our green spaces, selling land to developers in underhanded methods and now plans to squelch the Endangered Species Act in the same manner. The Species "Conservation " Act. Read more

The main cause of decline for all species at risk of extinction in N America is HABITAT LOSS. This loss legalize immediate, wide-scale destruction of habitat which is irreplaceable. Once the habitat is gone, it's GONE FOREVER. Read more

Doug Ford’s “Protect Ontario” bill is like calling arson a home renovation. He’s gutting the Endangered Species Act so his developer cronies can pave ecosystems without even checking if anything lives there — then call it growth. Read more

How can you think of doing this, as our ecosystem collapses, and animal species are already disappearing at an egregious rate? Do your greedy masters, and your greedy political hacks, really need even more money? Is there no satisfying you swine? Read more

I have significant concerns about the institution of this policy. Ontario has a beautiful ecosystem. This bill puts at risk the fragile balance and the nature that makes our province some beautiful and special. Read more

I find this proposal to be absolutely disgusting. We are stewards of this land - we need to protect the wildlife that has been here for years before us. We should not be removing protections, but instead increasing them. Read more
