As an Ontario resident, I am absolutely shocked and appalled that the Ontario government wants to reopen the spring bear hunt. This violence toward nature and other species has to stop! Although it is illegal to kill a mother bear with cubs, it will still happen as the cubs may not be visible and hunters can't always distinguish between a male and female bear. This leaves young cubs helpless and subjected to a slow agonizing death. This is cruel and unacceptable. We are better than that! This is the 21st century and hundreds of thousands of young people around the world are passionately marching for a healthier planet. Hunting bears is outdated and belongs in a more brutal era of the past. The Ontario government needs to respect nature and protect wildlife.

PLEASE DO NOT REOPEN THE SPRING BEAR HUNT!!!!
