Allow hunting of Cormorants. Give hunters flexibility in regards to daily and bag limits. Other than maybe Lake of the Woods, these seem to be invasive species. An invasive species will have a negative effect on indigenous species (especially with such a large population), even if there is not complete agreement on what that is at this point. The birds are so numerous, it would take some time before hunting could have a serious impact on the bird numbers. If during that time, if its determined hunting is not aligning with the provinces goals (whatever that may be), it can be stopped at anytime.
