This proposal is an exceptionally regressive step in regards to how we appreciate the natural world around us. To say the least, I find this proposal absurd. We should be celebrating the abundance of the Double-crested Cormorant as it shows how much our waters have improved. A good news story.

Cormorants should be controlled. Their population has increased too much and is affecting fish and landscapes. They eat anything less than 10 inches. They kill the sport fishing industry. Thanks
Leave the comorants alone. We as almost made the species go extinct once you really want to make the same mistake again? People are quick to complain but do not have all the facts.

I feel that the proposal to hunt the double-crested cormorants is a good way to control the population.
The migratory bird needs to be controlled to protect the fish and natural habitat it is destroying .
I am in favor of the proposal.
I do not support this cruel and unnecessary proposal. We should be protecting nature not destroying it. Please put a stop to the cormorant hunting proposal!
Let’s protect the double crested cormorant from the proposed slaughter that is being labeled as an open hunting season. The cormorants are not considered game birds and will be hunted for sport only. The will be killed during breeding season and while on their nests as well.

Surely there is some other method of stopping destruction and at the same time saving these grand looking birds, fifty to be shot per day, wow, that is devestating.

This latest news regarding the slaughter of FIFTY double crested cormorants is disgusting. The ignorance shown by those that chose the killing dates is absolutely unbelievable!
It sounds to me like the overall plan is to make these beautiful birds extinct???

I think that establishing the double-crested cormorant as a Game Bird with a hunting season in Ontario is a cruel form of "culling" that is actually extermination. It will cause more environmental problems than it purports to solve. Their numbers are modest in the Great Lakes and are stable.

I am opposed to this new law: killing up to 50 cormorants a day, letting the dead bodies rot, and killing parent birds during hatching and chick season. In addition, other bird populations could be hit, and/or driven away.

The Ministry's proposal to cull cormorants in the absence of any study demonstrating a clear need for this is appalling. Equally appalling is the proposed manner to cull cormorants, specifically, providing licenses to those who would find it entertaining to blast 50 out of the sky per day.

I am totally opposed to the proposal for open season hunting on cormorants. If a small cull is necessary in specific locations, it should never be allowed during nesting season. Also apart from cruelty aspects,
what a sad way for camping families to experience our provincial parks.
