OFIA opposes changes to Endangered Species Act

Greenpeace might think the Forest Industry is getting away scot-free from the Endangered Species Act; but the Ontario Forest Industry Association disagrees.


President Jamie Lim says they were promised the industry would be exempt from Caribou habitat legislation but it just hasn't happened.

The Province recently posted changes to the act on the Environmental Bill of Rights website.
