At the same time as the Ford Government is talking about its new Forest Strategy to increase timber cutting by 50 % from its current level, MNR &F is being pressured to bring back the spring bear hunt which will increase the cull of these large animals. The assault by this government on the Ontario ecosystem can't be understated.Environmental deregulation will lead to environmental degradation.

If the hunt is deemed necessary for employment in the northern areas of the province then prohibit the baiting of bears. I believe the shooting of bears in a dump is prohibited. Whats the difference ?
