We urge the Environmental…

We urge the Environmental Registry of Ontario and the Ministry of Natural Resources to abandon their proposal to reintroduce the spring bear hunt. There is no need for the hunt. The human safety argument has been soundly refuted and the economic and certainty arguments are unfounded.

Furthermore, on the political front, one wonders why our Premier would offend hundreds of thousands of swing voters who condemn the bear hunt as cruel and unnecessary simply to appease a few hundred hunters and tourist operators who would vote Tory whether or not the government abandons the spring bear hunt.

Thank you.
