I strongly oppose the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry’s proposal to allow new licenses and the transfer of existing licenses for dog Train and Trial areas in Ontario.

It is inhumane, cruel and unethical hunting practices for wildlife to be removed from their natural environment, penned and held as bait for dogs to hunt.

The existence of these facilities is opposed to Ontario’s laws protecting the welfare of animals and it is hypocritical and a disservice to Ontario for the Ministry to support them.

These facilities have no place in Ontario and instead of opening additional ones, live bait programs should be closing operations entirely.
