I am against this proposal.

The MInistry of Natural Resources should not be depending on the majority of its income coming from hunting licenses. It appears that the hunting of wildlife is the mandate and not the protection of wildlife.

I do not believe hunters will not hunt female bears, as I do not think all bear hunters are experienced individuals.
Bear hunting in our community has left orphaned cubs because the hunter shot a female bear by “mistake” When this happens the cubs are left to fend for themselves as the hunters or the Ministry of Natural Resources do not take responsibility for the error.

I also feel it is unacceptable bringing hunters from other countries here to hunt our wildlife.
When bears are baited all year and then shot for money spring or fall it isn’t what hunting is all about.

Thank you kindly for allowing comments on this proposal and I sincerely hope that the spring bear hunt is cancelled for good.
