Hi,

I'm shocked Ontario has such a cruel system for training dogs.
I firmly reject the MNR' and Forestry's proposal to allow new licenses and the transfer of licenses for train and trial areas in Ontario.

This method and facilities should be banned and all existing " penned dog hunting facilities" in Ontario need to be shut down. We don't live in the 1600's anymore and it's time to move to better policies and systems that are humane and show modern values, not the will of a small number of cruel and selfish people.
Ontario had phased these down in 1997 and we need to simply shut the facilities down, let alone allow any new ones (or reuse old or existing licenses through transfers).
Having such facilities stains Ontario's image as modern and business leading.
Also, i thought Ontario's wildlife protection laws say to not remove or harm wildlife. Putting them in such areas means moving them which breaks MNR rules.
Wildlife is not a toy for gun toting bored guys with dogs. Wildlife is to be cherished and cared for. Dogs are companions not killing tools.

Please reject this really horrible proposal.

thanks, michael
