[All] I am throwing a hail mary for salamanders

Hi folks
I have just sent off volumes of info to the Environmental Commissioner regarding Jefferson Salamanders, Line 9 and Line 10 issues that may secure protection of the critters while securing a better quality of scrutiny on the merits of Enbridge's pipeline approvals and the fact Ontario officers signed off on projects in spite of lack of EA and lack of data and fiscal analysis. 
Nobody, not even the PM, should sign off on projects without information to justify the merits of a case. My view: The merits were unfounded, incorrect or simply absent. 
It's not about the decision made but about the quality of the information provided or not provided upon which decisions were made. 
I am asking for emergency protection for Jefferson Salamanders and the revisit on the information that warranted the approvals given at the Provincial level. 
To this day there has yet to be critical habitat analysis for Jefferson Salamanders along the new route of the newly installed Enbridge Line 10. Installed or not we need mitigation strategies in place to assure no net loss to the remaining 10% of the species still living. We need Enbridge to comply with the Ontario Endangered Species Act and SARA. 
I also spoke of Hidden Valley salamanders and how encroachment is posing a risk to these populations at the local level.  We need to get to a solid NO to protect them. 
I'll keep you updated. 
Lulu
