I have read about your Intention to once again allow the spring bear hunt. It appears that you mean to control numbers and make as much money as possible by this method.
You state that "The harvest of bear cubs and female bears accompanied by a cub would remain prohibited". How are you really going to prevent this from happening? Furthermore, how does a hunter really know whether or not a bear has a cub?
Climate change is depressing enough and animals are finding the new climate reality challenging enough without your adding this additional horrid reality.
I would like to say please, please reconsider and do not let this hunt proceed: Please think of mother earth and her children (all creatures) that need to be protected and valued at this difficult time in the earth's history. There are so many species disappearing. The government of Ontario does not own these bears and so doesn't have the right to just say "Go ahead and kill them".
