I am truly shocked as a citizen of this province that this legislation is being considered. I vociferously denounce this approach--this is not hunting, this is slaughtering.

As someone who is a passionate hunter and angler, someone who takes pride in these historical practices, I find this a cheapening of these values. This isn't hunting. This recreational slaughtering.

There was sound reason for this practice to be curtailed in 1997, and in 2023, I cannot believe that in Ontario this is being proposed, let alone discussed. This will give hunters an even worse perspective with the general public, and lead to further deterioration of relations.

Please stop this legislation immediately!
