Proposed changes to endangered species law would 'stab it to death,' says scientist

Scientists are raising alarms about proposed revisions to Canada's Species At Risk Act, warning that the changes could lead to the "wilful extinction" of endangered species. Former chairs of the panel advising the federal government on endangered wildlife argue these changes could severely undermine conservation efforts. This move has sparked significant concern among conservationists who fear it might weaken protections for species already at risk. The implications could be dire for Canada's biodiversity and its commitment to global conservation standards.
