Yes, i am all for this proposal of a season opening on double crested cormorants. These invasive birds are detrimental to the fish population everywhere they are present and once they inhabit as a flock to a concentrated area such as an island on a lake, its not long after that the island is destroyed and most likely the fish population has taken a hit as well. This article presents a strong case for a season on these cormorants.

Next i believe the MNR should take a strong look into a late winter/early spring hunt on the Canada geese to start controlling there population as well. There numbers are getting out of control and i often find them walking down the sidewalks like there humans, leaving there feces everywhere around the urban areas of eastern Ontario.
