It is limiting on our enjoyment of the outdoor area around our Ontario cottage that hunters shoot game in the fall. We have to curtail hikes and wear safety vests and keep the kids inside. While I support the idea of hunting for food, I would prefer not to allow people to shoot on the lake in the summer season ... cormorants are around where we swim and boat, and shooting them will be a safety hazard for us. Many hunters are careful and consider the activities of others but some do not, and if you try to dispute with them you are the one without a gun. I would not support killing of up to 50 cormorants a day for no reason other than to kill them. I do not support the use of shotguns in public recreation areas in summer.
