Ecojustice lawyers are going back to court to stand up for <a href="http://ejcan.convio.net/site/R?i=bIR0lBTCvYN8T9yfpfG0DA" target="_blank">Ontario’s endangered species</a>.<br><br>After waiting several months for a decision, we received word that our clients, Ontario Nature and Wildlands League, have been granted leave to appeal a lower court ruling that puts already endangered species at further risk of extinction. <br><br><strong><a href="http://ejcan.convio.net/site/R?i=A9UzGRTxeB9gkul2zbhdJQ" target="_blank">Can you help us prepare for the next phase of this important case by making a donation today?</a></strong> <br><br>Without people like you <a href="http://ejcan.convio.net/site/R?i=nSoy63XYVhmiK9ukIbvj8Q" target="_blank">supporting our work</a>, cases like this one would likely never be heard. This ruling marks the first time environmental groups have won the right to appeal to Ontario’s highest court — the Ontario Court of Appeal — on a case about the <em>Endangered Species Act</em> (ESA). <br><br>The appeal challenges the <a href="http://ejcan.convio.net/site/R?i=W2GpSEZi6-BAYklugsB9qQ" target="_blank">Ontario Divisional Court’s decision to uphold a provincial regulation</a> that exempts major industries from the ESA, and allows those industries to kill endangered species and destroy their habitat. Species threatened by the regulation include the American Eel, Blanding’s Turtle, Lakeside Daisy, Eastern Hog-nosed Snake, Acadian Flycatcher, and the iconic Woodland Caribou.<br><br>Going to court is a major commitment, but your donation will ensure that we have the resources we need to continue efforts to protect Ontario’s endangered species and build the case for a better earth.<br><br><a href="http://ejcan.convio.net/site/R?i=HYKrFeVJPXhtV2QFKtlFIg" target="_blank"><strong>Please give today</strong></a>. <strong>Ontario’s endangered species are counting on us.<br><br></strong>Sincerely,<br><img src="http://ejcan.convio.net/images/content/pagebuilder/Devon_Page.jpg" border="0" alt="Devon Page" vspace="10" width="100" height="100" id="1442251254782"><br>Devon Page, Executive Director<br><img src="http://ejcan.convio.net/images/content/pagebuilder/ecojustice.jpg" border="0" alt="Ecojustice" vspace="10" width="160" height="40" id="1442251254783"></p>
