Dear Mr. Ford, I am unaware…

Dear Mr. Ford,

I am unaware of the existence of such an organization!
Not only that, I am horrified at the need for such!!
Add to that, learning that it’s main existence is for competition…I am in tears as I think of the terror it brings to both sides…the wild animals…and also the dogs being trained!!

The cruelty is inexcusable.

Reinstating a law that was created in 1997 to phase out this cruelty is also inexcusable.

How does does killing coyotes (rabbits and foxes) help dogs to track/kill deer, moose and other animals we eat?

People very experienced in this crusade can say it better than I…

• I firmly reject the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry’s proposal to allow new licenses and the transfer of licenses for train and trial areas in Ontario.
• Penned dog hunting facilities are cruel to the wild animals who are subjected to various methods used to train dogs to hunt.
• Wildlife should never be taken from their natural environments and held captive by hunters. It’s especially cruel to use rabbits, coyotes, and foxes as pawns for hunters to train dogs and hold competitions.
• Opening applications for train and trial spaces after 25 years is a massive step backward into the past. These facilities have no place in Ontario.
• Instead of opening new applications, the province’s existing 24 facilities need to be closed immediately.

Sincerely and with hope in my heart,
A Concerned Animal Lover
