I urge the Ontario government to cancel the province's Spring Bear Hunt completely There was no legitimate rationale for partial reinstatement of the spring bear hunt by the previous government and there is none now. Please, do not follow through with this misguided plan.

Our moose hunting gang hunted the area west of Nakina this past fall without see much moose sign. But the area was infested with bears. We shot one and could have shot at least two more. No wonder there wasn't much moose sign.

Ontario legislators need to cancel the Spring Bear Hunt completely. They need to stop the pilot project initiated by previous Liberal governments. I beg you to not follow this misguided plan laid out by the previous party.

Please reconsider your proposed changes to the black bear hunting regulations for the following reasons:
Mother bears often leave their cubs in trees when searching for food. If a mother is killed, her cubs will likely die slowly of starvation or be eaten by predators.

I sincerely urge you to end the spring bear hunt.
There is nothing virtuous about taking joy in needlessly killing and innocent animal minding its own business. What a barbaric practice!

The Spring Bear Hunt results in orphaned bear cubs. There is no denying this - wildlife rehabilitators can attest that some hunters make mistakes and kill mothers with cubs even though regulations were designed to prevent this from happening.

Please don’t extend this senseless and cruel regulation. It benefits no one except trophy hunters and disgusts everyone else. This is NOT what my Canada looks like. As a citizen I certainly hope my comments are taken seriously, but I’m not holding my breath, given our current ‘leader’ in Ontario.
Our wildlife needs our protections! Bears do not deserve to be slaughtered at a bait station because “hunters” think they are entitled to their “sport”. It makes me sick to think of any man or woman murdering a mother bear with her cubs just to have a trophy. Please protect our wildlife.
I sincerely urge you to end the spring bear hunt.

I simply cannot believe that in this day and age you are considering the hunting and killing of these poor animals, sentient beings like you and me! That is totally unacceptable!!!

I am an almost 40 years long summer cottage resident in Bayfield Inlet, Georgian Bay. I am appalled at the prospect of a change in the black bear hunting regulations. There is absolutely no grounds for the change.

Bear cubs will continue to be orphaned if the hunt becomes permanent. While it’s currently against the law to kill cubs and mother bears accompanied by cubs, mother bears often leave their cubs in trees when searching for food.
