Please reconsider this inhumane change to the Conservation Act that will allow wildlife to be trapped and used as bait in pens for hunting dogs. This is animal cruelty and goes against the spirit of Canada's prior commitments to respect and coexist peacefully with wildlife, rehabilitate animals and champion educating the public and children on Canada's native species. At a time when Canada's most famous brand, Canada Goose, has stopped trapping coyotes for fur due to intense public pressure and scrutiny, and fur sales are on sharp declines for decades and being phased out, practices like those suggested in this proposal are outrageous. This is taking us back to the dark ages and will become yet another stain on Canada's reputation internationally. This is not who we are as a nation!
