These training and trial…

These training and trial licenses should be made unlawful and the province should discontinue any expansion of licenses immediately. This is a disgusting over reach by hunters and poor oversight of the ministry of natural resources and forestry. You are subjecting a captive wild apex predator to inhumane distress in an unnatural setting. These licences should be discontinued not expanded whatsoever. Conservation Officers and the Chief Animal Welfare Officer and the Chief Veterinarian for Ontario should do their jobs of enforcement of individuals who continue to carryout this inhumane practice causing undue distress in a captive wild animal. The enclosed hunting areas are a hazard to animal welfare, health and wellbeing to a captive animal. As such these trial and training areas are inhumane and are a contravention to the PAWS Act, the SPCA Act and the Animal Health Act in Ontario regarding the protection of distress, and hazards to captive animals. Overall it is an inhumane bizarre form of hunting and animal training in Ontario that needs to be stopped as soon as possible. We stopped hunting enclosures for cervids many years ago, and this current practice is much worse. This specific inhumane practice has nothing to do with reducing red tape or helping the economy. Remove it from this Bill 91 and further stop this practice completely.
