I am not in favour of the proposal to establish a hunting season for double-crested cormorants in Ontario as outlined on EBR 013-4124.
As per the proposal, Great Lakes cormorant populations have already stabilized or decreased and no information is provided on the status of cormorant populations elsewhere in the province indicating uncertainty in population estimates.
What rigorous science is available that prove that cormorants have been detrimental to game fish and commercial fish populations?
What justification is there for a province-wide hunting season for double-crested cormorants? The proposal suggests there are some Great Lake hot spots where a small scale pilot hunt may be worthy to explore and monitor its effectiveness prior to considering a reckless province-wide approach.
On what basis did you determine a daily bag limit of 50 cormorants?
How did you determine that this proposal would not be a sustainability issue for cormorant populations in Ontario?
I kindly request your SEV determination analysis that this proposal's anticipated environmental consequences are expected to be neutral.
