Hi there, I fully support…

Hi there,

I fully support the passing of the proposed spring bear season as it addresses past criticisms of the original season that was abolished in 1999, as well as provides certainty to the guides and outfitters that rely on the hunt's stability.

I believe that the banning of shooting cubs and mothers with cubs addresses the primary concern of orphaning bears, which was a major talking point of animal rights advocates at the time of its abolishment.

I also feel that the addressing of bear population concerns in the Bruce Peninsula through a shortened season shows the province's thoroughness in analyzing the capacity for a spring season in other management areas.

Thank you for your time
