Both Canada and British Columbia currently lack specific legislation to protect species at risk. I review the background to this deficiency and comment briefly on the form of upcoming federal endangered species legislation. I propose that a stand-alone British Columbia Endangered Species Act would complement the new federal legislation ideally, and would be the most appropriate way to fulfill British Columbia’s obligations under the National Accord for the Protection of Species at Risk. Finally, I consider the form and content of such an act, and whether British Columbia currently has the capability to implement such an act.
