I am somewhat shocked that such a drastic wholesale slaughter of a species would be tolerated, let alone be conceived. Where is the science and logic being applied to this decision? I have spent most of my life on Georgian Bay waters and yes the birds can be an irritant, but never would I have expected such a ruthless solution.
I would urge some reconsideration of the decision with input from persons with obviously more mental capacity than those that have proposed it, this is a slaughter being suggested by all accounts the hunting groups that need an excuse to kill more wild life than they already have.

Please apply a more logical and reasonable solution to the issue. Killing off a species is not a viable way to appease the blood lust of the hunting groups.
