The provincial government is proposing changes to the growth plan to remove the prohibition on aggregate extraction in the habitat of threatened and endangered species in the regional Natural Heritage System of the Greater Golden Horseshoe area. 

I encourage you to have your group sign on to the attached letter and/or to send in your own letter on the matter.
