I am writing a comment because I greatly reject the MNRF's proposal to allow the transfer of licenses or new licenses for penned training of dog hunting in Ontario. These enclosed hunting pens are very cruel for the animals. The MNRF should be protecting wildlife and our natural environment, not subjecting animals to this torturous practice. Since 1997, this was stopped and now the MNRF has this proposal, it makes no sense and is a terrible step back in how we should be living in harmony with nature and not using/abusing wildlife.

I think the province needs to close the existing penned dog training/hunting facilities. This is a barbaric, medieval practice and I am deeply disturbed that it is even allowed in this time. Please do not amend this act and allow this to go forward.
