Toronto,
Ont. – The Ontario government’s shocking and irresponsible proposed
changes to the Endangered Species Act will effectively remove all safety
nets for species at risk in this province. The proposal will give
industry a free pass to exterminate species in Ontario.

This move
is regressive and dangerous. The world is in a biodiversity crisis, and
the #Ontario government has proposed to gut one of the most comprehensive
endangered species laws in the world. The province is bending to
pressure from industry and sprawl developers when they should be working
to restore and protect vulnerable habitats.
