I've had a property on Big Rideau Lake in Eastern Ontario since 2006. I noticed Cormorants for the first time about 8 years ago. After establishing a colony on one small island, the Cormorants have not expanded their colony. About 4 years ago I've noticed bald eagles in the area in increasing numbers.

As I understand Cormorants are a part of the native food chain which supports top predators such as the bald eagle, I oppose the legislation because top predators are necessary to maintain a healthy eco-system.
