Making these changes seriously limits over sight of environmently sensitive areas and makes them vulnerable to development which cannot be undone. Please do not do this to our children's future!

Local communities are best equipped to identify and prioritize environmental needs. Consolidation of these regions limits the ability of communities to have influence over their local ecosystems and should not be done.

The proposal to consolidate Ontario’s 36 conservation authorities into the following 7 regional conservation authorities may benefit individuals submitting permit applications but will likely have disastrous effects on communities.

I do NOT support this merger. As my money goes to support conservation authorities, I want to keep it local in my own watershed to support efforts locally. There are many issues with this merger:
1. The Province has not provided evidence showing why the merger is needed.

Who is the genius that thinks merging the Lakehead Region Conservation Authority with the Huron group is good idea?
If you insist on merging the LRCA with another group, why not choose the Northeastern Ontario RCA and possibly rename it to Northern Ontario RCA.

As a resident of the Municipality of Neebing, I am OPPOSED to the Province’s proposed amalgamation of the Lakehead Region Conservation Authority (LRCA) with six other Southern Ontario Conservation Authorities to form the “Huron-Superior Regional Conservation Authority”.
