I find overall that this proposal is deeply disturbing, and it is highly doubtful that cormorants are to blame for reduced fish stocks and pollution. As we know, human activities are the leading culprit of environmental destruction, habitat destruction, environmental deterioration, species extinction, and fish stock depletion due to over-fishing.
Cormorants are native to Ontario and have a strong presence in our natural environment and ecological balance. There is no scientific evidence showing cormorants are to blame for fish stock depletion or environmental degradation. This proposal is aimed simply to appease a small group of biased members of the public including hunters and home-owners who would benefit from this expanded hunt and is not justifiable by any means.
Shame on the government for proposing such a ridiculous notion!
