This is an egregious use of power and waste of life. These native birds that have all but been wiped out already, that have finally made a comeback and reside within the range of a modestly stable population, are not birds that people should be allowed to hunt and waste. Lire davantage

I remember Ontario outdoors without cormorants, but with plenty of fish. For five decades I have been enjoying fishing and boating and camping along the Georgian Bay coastline and the French River. Lire davantage

Horrible! The daily limits are far to high and to not have a seasonal maximum is completely irresponsible. Killing innocent animals is not the solution, they deserve to live just as we humans do.

I support allowing hunting of the bird, but I think that we should attempt only very modest numbers to begin with. The current proposal allows far too many birds to be killed. We must be careful not to unbalanced things too far in the opposite direction. Please proceed, but proceed with caution.

My son and I regularly visit Tommy Thompson Park. We canoe across from Cherry Beach. We paddle through the area inhabited by the cormorants (north shore of Leslie St. spit). We've been doing it for 10 years. We watched this environmental catastrophe unfold, tree-by-tree. IT IS HORRIFYING. Lire davantage

The Double-crested Cormorant is a native species in the Great Lakes drainage, anthropomorphic pressures pushed them to near extirpation, after banning some pesticides that impacted the metabolism of calcium in the shell gland of female cormorants the population recovered. Lire davantage

I agree that the province needs to investigate the issue of cormorant spread and their associated impacts within Ontario, however, let us not trick ourselves by classifying this species as a game bird. Cormorants are one of the most foul species of bird to consume and are incredibly unpalatable. Lire davantage

The number of cormorants that can be hunted is too high, there should also be a limit to how many can be hunted in a season. Hunter's should not be given free reign to exterminate a species. Please consider lowering the daily limit and imposing a reasonable maximum number. Lire davantage

I am opposed to the new Cormorant hunting law as proposed. I feel there should be a trial two-year period to evaluate effects of the law. For that period, the nesting period should be excluded, and the bagging limitation should be far less - maybe 15 or 20 rather than 50 per day. Lire davantage

Cormorants are migratory. The proposed season duration covers the entire period the birds would be expected to live in the province. This seems inappropriate. If the current population is stable or declining, a hunting season will surely cause further decline. Lire davantage

It has come to my attention that the Premier has a proposal in the works to allow hunters to shoot and kill cormorants between March and December when they are nesting. Lire davantage

This is a reckless attempt to control a population of non-game birds which certain self-interest groups and individuals are concerned about. Lire davantage

What an incredibly reckless proposal! Bullets flying, blood and suffering, death and dying, lead shells and bullets contaminating the waterfront and poisoning wildlife!! And during nesting season!! Lire davantage

Do not allow this to happen. Cormorants are beneficial because their diet consists of very large numbers of primarily invasive fish, such as alewives and round gobies, as well as other non-commercial, non-forage species. Lire davantage

Statut du commentaire

Cormorants are a native species that should not be subjected to an open hunting season with an outrageously high kill limit, the ability to kill nesting birds and allowing the carcasses to rot. I am not against hunting for food, but this will encourage the worst kind of murder for fun. Lire davantage

Killing off birds that just eat fish is a bad idea. If the Cormorants were pink, or yellow, or other colours than black they wouldn't be hunted down so viciously. Lire davantage
