I completely and utterly…

I completely and utterly reject the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry’s proposal to allow new licenses and the transfer of licenses for train and trial areas in Ontario. This shouldn't even have to be said, as this "technique" was previously deemed unethical and has been phasing out since 1997, yet somehow it would seem a few people have disregarded animal welfare entirely by making this proposal.

Ontario should not be so complacent with throwing out the progress it has made over the past 25 years. Frankly I was absolutely disgusted to hear about this in the first place. Wildlife is already being disrupted and treated horribly in regards to habitat loss and pollution, and you seek to make it worse for them by allowing this kind of torture and captivity? The province still has 24 facilities that allow this, which should be closed immediately. No new applications should be opened, and those who made this proposal should take a step back and try to use a shred of empathy to re-evaluate their decision. Do not let Ontario become a province that does things like this so shamelessly. This is not the place. There is no place.
