I reject the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry’s proposal to allow new licences and the transfer of licences for train and trial areas in Ontario.

Penned dog hunting facilities are cruel to the wild animals which are subjected to the various methods used to train dogs to hunt. In addition, wildlife should never be taken from their natural environments and held captive by hunters. t is especially cruel to use rabbits, coyotes and foxes as pawns for hunters to train dogs and hold competitions.

Opening applications for train and trial spaces after 25 years is a huge step backwards. Such facilities have no place in Ontario. Instead of opening new applications, the province’s existing 24 facilities need to be closed immediately.
