Dear Sir/Madame,
Our organization opposing hunting of cormorants and other animals in the province. Wildlife face so many threats from humans, from deforestation to air and water pollution to encroachment on wild areas from so-called development. We are privileged to share the planet with other species. We need to end the banal speciesism which in the end will spell the doom of the human species unless we change. We need to end consumption of animals and their products as this is a leading cause of catastrophic climate change. If we switched to a plant based diet this would open areas that are degraded with monocultures of corn and soy used for animal feed to reforestation. Reforestation would allow for carbon to be absorbed out of the atmosphere and help address the climate crisis. How we treat wild animals is tied to our daily eating habits. If you were all vegan this discussion of shooting precious bird colonies would not appear in these pages. Please go vegan, all of you.

Thank you.
