I'm a resident of Ontario and I take strong exception to the idea of licensing facilities to train domestic dogs to hunt wild animals. It's irrelevant that this practice has occurred in the past, we are meant to improve our ethical behaviours over time, and tormenting coyotes or other animals by subjecting them to attacks by dogs is not ethical. I'm not opposed to hunting for meat; I assume the vast majority of hunters consider it a priority to kill an animal with minimal pain and suffering. Using dogs for the purpose of hunting is just cruel. Full stop.
