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

Wildlife should never be taken from their natural environments and held captive by hunters. It’s cruel and unnecessary.

As a First Nations person is Ontario I find this abhorrent. While I do believe in hunting as a means to provide food and for cultural purposes this should always be done with respect and care for the beings whose lives are given to us.

I would like to know what consultations were done with Indigenous people in Ontario. This practice was previously recognized as cruel. Not only is it not being abolished, it is being expanded and there is no reason that should be so.
