This story is really typical of the attitudes of government to the natural world -- with all the knowledge to solve this potential problem the authorities do not consult those who could warn and suggest solutions to an environmental problem ... keep up the good work!

Please do the right thing and put the eels future first !

American Eel are an important part of Ontario’s ecosystems. Clearly an immediate action is needed to ensure that they are not lost from Ontario. The government response statement outlines a good path forward for research and planning, but it fails to call for sufficient short-term actions.

When I heard about this story I believed that I'd have to speak up for American Eel populations in Ontario that have decreased by 99% in recent years.

Time is of the essence for the threatened eel population.

  Please revise Action 7 to require specific and immediate reductions in the mortality of adult eels as they migrate through hydropower facilities.

Les anguilles d’Amérique sont très importantes pour les écosystèmes de l’Ontario. Des mesures claires et immédiates sont nécessaires pour assurer qu’elles ne disparaissent pas à jamais de l’Ontario.

We need to start taking responsibility to the environment we live in. That includes ensuring the lives of the animals we affect through dam building have options to get around them. It maybe inconvenient but it is an ethical responsibility.
