I think it is a terrible idea to introduce a hunting season for cormorants in Ontario. If anything, their increased numbers indicate that the fish population is healthier. It would be one thing if the birds were actually being eaten but to have such a ludicrous limit (up to 50 birds per day) is wasteful in the extreme.

The long hunting season proposed is also problematic. It overlaps with BOTH spring and fall migrations and puts people and migrating birds at risk.

Please reconsider this and do not introduce this measure. It seems very ill-advised and not scientifically or economically sound.
