Nine in ten Canadians identify nature as an integral part of our national identity.
The economic value of ecosystem services in Canada is estimated to be at least CAD $3.6 trillion per year, and more than US $125 trillion of global annual economic value depends on nature;
Conserving and protecting our natural assets is more responsible and less expensive than restoring those assets after they have been degraded;
Local groups from across Canada, including wildlife centres and land trusts, are already working to support conservation.
Indigenous rightsholders and the provinces are already engaging in actions to protect and restore biodiversity in their jurisdictions; and
In 2024, the Federal Government released a strategy to halt and reverse biodiversity loss by 2030 called the 2030 Nature Strategy, but so far no new actions have been taken on this whole-of-government strategy; and current federal funding will end in March 2026.

We, the undersigned residents of the Province of Ontario,

call upon the Government of Canada to:

Protect and restore our natural heritage by keeping their promise to implement the 2030 Nature Strategy, including to:
