I am writing in opposition to proposed regulation 013-4124 which would list the double-crested cormorant as a game bird. This measure is unwarranted and would set a dangerous precedent as it would allow large numbers of this beneficial native species to be wiped out.

I strongly disagree with this proposal. It puts the Loon at immediate risk through misidentification in flight. This proposal is an intellectually lazy and morally bankrupt attempt at species management that has no place in Canada.

I believe that the cormorants are an integral part of Ontario .They would not be here if conditions had not been made so that they would have habitat and food. Just because their poo stinks is no reason to obliterate a species

Could we please just stop killing every animal or bird on this planet. I am so sick and tired of animal agriculture /hunters, whatever their agenda is, to allow a hunt for wolves, for cormorants, whatever the animal, please do not do it. Lire davantage

I am somewhat shocked that such a drastic wholesale slaughter of a species would be tolerated, let alone be conceived. Where is the science and logic being applied to this decision? Lire davantage

Researchers have recently discovered that 90% of cormorants' diet is of invasive, non-native fish (eg round goby, alewife, white perch) that are of little use to fishermen. These non-native fish 'steal' valuable food resources from our native fish. Lire davantage

I strongly oppose the proposed 'hunting' season for double-crested cormorants (DCC). The birds are inedible and the proposed catch limits are impossible to reasonably enforce. Lire davantage

This proposal is poorly thought out and lacks scientific evidence to support its conclusions. The proposal details state: "...Great Lakes populations (of double crested cormorants) have ...stabilized or declined slightly". Lire davantage

This is despicable. How can you have a hunting season for so many months? During cottaging season? You want people to be shoot when kids are waterskiing and swimming? This is awful The cormorants are natural. They keep to themselves on small islands. Lire davantage

I'm very opposed to the idea of changing the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act to allow for leaving the cormorants to spoil without having to retrieve the carcasses. Lire davantage

I oppose the hunting of cormorants. It is cruel and unnecessary. Cormorants play an important role in our ecosystem and the damage they cause has been exaggerated. Please do not go ahead with this proposal.

No no no!!!! How can you possibly call for this kind of cull for birds that were already wiped out once by DDT, and have naturally come back to where they belong? 50 kills a day? From March to October? Are you kidding? And what about people who are on the lakes in May and after August 31? Lire davantage

I oppose this proposal and the fact that our Ontario government would even consider targeting a species to the point of possible extinction. There is no scientific reason to go after this controversial and misunderstood species, beyond placating hunters and giving into their (importunate) demands. Lire davantage

According to Bird Studies Canada, “the proposed bag limit of 50 Double-crested Cormorants per day per hunter with no possession limit over a nine and a half month open season is exceptionally high, unsustainable, and without precedent under the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act for its failure to a Lire davantage

I am a regular citizen in southern Ontario and am dismayed that we would even think of hunting cormorants for sport, rather than looking to science to help with concerns regarding their population. Lire davantage

Double crested cormorants do have an impact on the tree and fish populations, but this is part of a natural evolution of a shoreline ecosystem. Cormorants are doing exactly what they are supposed to do in their environment. Lire davantage

I would like to chime in on my vote to proceed with the hunt. I believe cormorants have a place however they should be controlled, we need to quickly reduce the numbers, allow them to populated already established nesting grounds. Lire davantage
