This is unconscionably cruel, unnecessary, and wrong. This government should be protecting wildlife, their habitats, and important ecological in Ontario. To encourage hunting competitions is disgusting, foul, and unhinged.
Trialing for points is abjectly just a cruel form of entertainment which should not be encouraged - what kind of a hobby hinges on killing innocent wildlife for giggles?
This proposal should not go through. As stated, "New train and trial areas were last approved to be established in 1997 and were intended to be phased-out over time." Why is the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry working to reestablish this archaic practice, which, even 26 years ago was deemed so unnecessary that the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act outlined its deliberate demise?
More than ever, Ontario needs to protect its natural resources from greed, destruction, and over-development. Unfortunately, it seems the precarity of said resources is fuelled by very ministry entrusted with their safekeeping.
