Download or read book The Ontario Endangered Species Act written by Al Mussell and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2007, the Province of Ontario passed a new Endangered Species Act (ESA). Following a year-long review process with stakeholders, the Ontario government, led by the Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) developed this legislation, which identifies Ontario as the North American leader in species-at-risk protection and recovery, and claims to be the first to combine science-based listing of species at risk with mandatory habitat protection and mandatory recovery planning. This is consistent with an election campaign promise made by the Ontario Liberal party. Regulations guiding the implementation of the new legislation have been approved, along with an expansion in the number of species to be covered, changed roles for affected landowners/land users, and changed impacts on both protected species at risk habitat and on affected landowners in Ontario. The legislation is now being implemented and enforced. The purpose of this paper is to describe the provisions of the Ontario ESA, provide an economic analysis of these provisions, and make recommendations for improvements.

Download or read book Politics of the Wild written by Karen Beazley and published by Don Mills, Ont. : Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Politics of the Wild details the 353 species at risk in Canada and considers both the intrinsic and the instrumental reasons for protecting biological diversity. It examines the need for habitat protection, terrestrial protected areas such as national parks, marine species at risk, and the various legislative and interest group attempts to preserve biodiversity. Public policy on endangered species is considered from both historical and comparative perspectives, as is Canada's role in establishing international agreements--the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species and the Convention on Biological Diversity--and the government's failure in recent years to meet the obligations of these and other environmental agreements. The final chapter looks at the Species at Risk Act (SARA) and its recent predecessor, Bill C-65, and reveals the difficulties of crafting and passing such legislation in an increasingly decentralized federal state such as Canada. Both legislative attempts were criticized--by the environmental policy community for not doing enough, and by the provinces and business for trying to do too much. All the while, diverse regional interests and economic imperatives run the risk of endangering far more than merely Canadian species at risk.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a rapidly changing environment, management of natural resources is essential. Currently the world is undergoing a rapid loss of biodiversity through extinctions caused by human activities. Despite the alarming rate of species endangerment and subsequent loss, efforts to reduce species loss have been met with a number of complications. It is evident that any effective environmental management policy for biodiversity is more likely than not to encroach on private, public and commercial interests. This study investigates implementation successes and challenges specifically of Ontario's Endangered Species Act (OESA) within the larger context of Southern Ontario's land use planning policies (i.e., Greenbelt Act, Oak Ridges Moraine Plan, Niagara Escarpment Plan) and the Biodiversity Strategy. The study explores the roles and capacity of the government and non-government institutions involved in implementing the legislation and identifies gaps through expert interviews. While it was found that together such initiatives have succeeded in raising the public profile of endangered species, difficulty in proper implementation remains. Generally, this arises from a lack of coordination between and within the responsible authorities, lack of meaningful engagement with stakeholders and insufficient institutional capacity. Incongruousness in the process and substance among the mentioned biodiversity conservation and land use planning measures leads to use of regulations without the desired result. Finally, a critique I offered on the single-species approach to conservation taken in the legislation and suggest an alternative approach that is transparent, adaptively managed, and engages stakeholders is suggested.
