Please stop the Spring black bear hunt in Ontario. Mother bears and cubs emerge from hibernation in the spring. Hunters cannot accurately identify them from males at a distance. Killing mothers leaves baby cubs orphaned and at risk of dying due to starvation and threat of other animals. This does nothing to increase or stabilize the population. Game hunters from the US and their money is not enough of a reason to put these animals at risk. Developing appropriate avenues of commerce for northern communities that are year round and sustainable are more important for the Ontario government to consider. "Big Game Management Advisory Committee" says it all....big money is the only reason to bring this back. The don't care about orphaned cubs, sustainability or management. Just dollars as is the Ford government!
STOP this Spring Bear Hunt. I have lived in this province for all of my 63 years, I don't hop in for a few weeks to get my thrills shooting a big animal and leave. I support this province with tax dollars and say NO!
