Comment
I am a resident of Haliburton county with a large acreage bordering on crown land. I am completely opposed to the spring bear hunt. I dispute the claim that bear populations are healthy. I have not seen a bear, bear scat, caught a bear on my game camera, or seen fresh bear scratches on trees on my property for over 5 years. 15 years ago I saw bears several times a year.
As for tourism: first, I’m thinking tourism campaigns promoting bear hunting is hardly going to promote Ontario as a family tourism destination. And second, I can’t see how the revenue from a spring bear hunt can be at all significant.
No spring bear hunt!
