I have fished / hunted practically all of my 71 years and the Cormorant is / has to be one of the factors that has changed the fisherie populations in our province, inland from the Great Lakes which have been decimated since at least the late 80’s ! This doesn’t even take into account the destruction of some wonderful habit in areas where nesting / breeding occurs and that were once some great recreational areas that had been enjoyed for decades previously ! I agree completely with this control rational by the province of this sleek, great looking but destructive bird provided it is done in the same way as all other waterfowl hunting ie. minimize suffering and ensure complete kills ! I make these comments without prejudice and my name as I did not want to take the time to register !
