I had to read this proposal a few times because I couldn't believe what is being proposed. The Ministry is advocating using live wildlife to train hunting dogs. These foxes, rabbits, coyotes, etc. are going to be chased and then torn apart. There are other methods available instead of using live animals to teach dogs to hunt. Why are those options not being explored? While humans worldwide are starting to wake up to the inhumanity we impose on other species for OUR entertainment, clothing, food, sports and while these people are now speaking out against the torture (you don't think being ripped alive is torture?) my Canadian Government is advocating cruelty and abuse of these beings.

What is wrong with this picture? These wild ones are just as much a part of our world and created by the same God or Universal Source that WE are. Has my government lost all sense of decency, humanity and respect for ALL species?

When we die what we leave behind is our legacy in this world. What kind of legacy are those of you involved with this atrocity going to leave? Show and tell children what you propose to do, what do you think their responses would be? A child still has love and kindness in them whereas many adults seem to have lost those attributes.

Darkness is encompassing our world and sadly, you folks are adding to this darkness.

My heart is full of tears and my Soul is begging you to NOT go forward with this proposal.
