I appreciate the Government's efforts to protect the Bruce Peninsula bears. As a genetically individual species, and a 'trapped' group due to geography, it is all the more important to ensure the species' longevity.

I do not pretend to know about other bear populations in Ontario, but I hope that all bear populations are tended with care and consideration of their longevity, as a species on this earth, during any regulation changes and updates.

Coming from a family of hunters, I understand the hunting mentality and excitement. But I also don't always agree with my family members on their stances about hunting regulations, gun regulations, or desire for more hunting opportunities. However, in order to have good quality and quantity of hunting opportunities, regulations are a necessity. We do not need to hunt and gather for our food anymore, although a majority of hunters do eat what they kill - which is good. But hunting is now a sport, not a necessity.

Please keep the balance as you move forward with new / improved regulations
