I am not against hunting. But I am against hunting cormorants. They are inedible and their impact is insignificant compared to ours. I cannot see the logic of the proposal to hunt cormorants during the spring, summer, and autumn with a daily quota per person of 50. However, if Environment Canada, based on their research, determines that culling the cormorants is required, it should be organized by Environment Canada where they chose the numbers and the locations of the cull based on their research. It should not be carried out haphazardly by the public.
We already interfere enough with nature catering to special interests. Will the herons and the ospreys be next?
