 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.

The American eel plays an important role in Canada's aquatic biodiversity. It has the greatest range of any fish species in North America and has supported major commercial, recreational, and Aboriginal fisheries.

Here’s hopeing this helps the eels make it past dams:

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

 Why does it take the government so long to implement something so critical. This animal may not be around by the time you implement, like so many of your other policies for animal rights. The Government is very lax in this area.

American Eel are an important part of Ontario’s ecosystems, and are in critical condition. This planning process is a good step forward, but there is still an immediate need for action if we are not to lose this species from our province.

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.

 Immediate action is needed to protect Ontario's eel population. For far too long, the province's hydropower producers have been permitted to unnecessarily impede eel passage and fragment critical habitat. I support the following changes to the Government Response Statement:
