I'm in full support of the study and its scope to look at future potential development activities in lands adjacent to the Park, notably in the area known as the Duffins Rouge Agricultural Preserve, and the potential effects of these activities. I'm happy to see that it will also consider the effects of other past, ongoing and future physical activities in the Park, the Duffins Rouge Agricultural Preserve, federal lands adjacent to the Park as well as other areas if these have the potential for effects in areas of federal jurisdiction within the Park; b) The ecological integrity of the Park and the ability of the Park to meet its management objectives, including as described in the Park management plan: the protection of biodiversity, natural resources, and natural process; enhancement of ecological connectivity throughout the Park; maintaining beneficial working relationships with Indigenous communities; and supporting a vibrant park farming community; c) Any other potential effects, including cumulative effects, on areas of federal jurisdiction (e.g., species at risk, federal lands), that may have implications within the Park; and, d) Consideration of how provincial laws and regulations, as well as other laws and regulations including Indigenous laws, would apply to such developments in order to predict potential effects.
