Thank you MNR. It's about time! For over 40 years I have watched beautiful islands in the North Channel of Lake Huron become nothing but barren pile of rock covered in droppings.
Each year I can count hundreds of cormorants at a time fly up the Spanish River, Mississaugi river and other waterways then drift down stream for miles at a time diving and eating just about every fish they can catch.
The inland lakes are not safe either, as a child up to my mid 20's we never saw never cormorants on the trout lakes (or any inland lake for that matter) now there are seasonal resident cormorants on many sensitive trout lakes north of the North Channel area. Some of these lakes are now actually fishless, they once had healthy populations of lakers and brookies, and it certainly wasn't from anglers overfishing.
thank you
Lets hope this goes through!
