My family & I are strongly in favour of this legislation.
We live on Lake Simcoe & are fully aware of the devastation cormorants have on the environment. For the past 2 summers, an island in our area -Goffats Island- has been inundated with cormorants—— the guano coated trees are turning gray & dying before our very eyes. Ship Island in Lake Couchiching is a horrible example of what Goffats is destined to become. These are only 2 examples of environmental devastation in northern Lake Simcoe. Also we feel with the introduction of the zebra mussel into our waters, the lake has become crystal clear. ..an open invitation to cormorants for a fish feeding frenzy.
All in all, the huge cormorant population is bad news. Let’s get these environmental offenders on the game bird list before it’s too late.
