Long overdue!!! 1 lb of fish each day are consumed by these birds. lush green Islands are totally devastated by nesting birds. Young of the year sport fish are especially susceptible in small bays on our great lakes during the months of August September and October when the diet of these birds changes from Alewife to sportfish. I understand cormorants are present in Algonquin Park as well. These lakes and potential nesting areas need to be protected . Hopefully new legislation can address culling in our provincial parks as well. Hamilton Harbour is disgusting. MNR@F is spending lots of funds rehabilitating Hamilton Harbour with walleye stocking and other natural habitat restoration programs...lets protect what we as taxpayers have invested in by culling those birds as well. not sure how the legislation would address this in a populated area like Burlington/Hamilton
