I am against the proposed extension of licenses for such facilities. The wildlife of Ontario is already facing huge challenges from everything including licensed toxins in the environment to climate change to total habitat destruction for highways and resource exploitation. The people who are "hunters" under this definition are in it for "sport", not food. I have myself hunted in the past, for deer and moose in Alberta, at a time when such "game" was plentiful in that province, and it was for consumption, not trophy. But that is NOT the situation in Ontario in today's environment. The killing of natural predators like wolves, foxes, and coyotes has been show conclusively to ultimately degrade the environment, with increases in pest species like rodents and overpopulation of herbivores with very negative environmental impacts. The science is very clear on this. Listen to the science, NOT to the entitled interests of hunters.
