I have already written to the Minister regarding implementing a permanent spring bear hunt, which
I oppose.

Reading the material on this website, I am still asking that no spring bear hunt occur in any place in
Ontario. And I note that proposal for a limited hunt of 1 week in the Bruce Peninsula. If there is a
decline in the bear population there, why have any hunt? That seems the more logical conclusion.
Re the fall hunt: I understand that cubs stay with their mothers for a year - so are not young bears
being killed in the fall hunt?? And no matter the skill of the hunters, I am sure a spring hunt means
the - perhaps unintentional - killing of females with young cubs. Another more incidental comment
on your information - an objection to the choice of the word "harvest" when writing of the killing/
hunting of these animals.

Thank you for your attention.
