I do not think the spring bear hunt should be reinstated at all. Hunters can not be trusted to be able to identify a nursing female and shoot only the males which is leaving orphaned bear cubs to suffer and starve when mom is lost. Read more

What a depraved idea! There is no need to hunt bear in the first place. Leave them alone and stop these cruel and senselss atrocities. Hunting black bear and sny other apex predator does more harm to the environment than it does good. Just leave them alone and nature eill take care of itself. Read more

I am very disturbed by this proposal, along with any others like it. Humans have destroyed the natural balance in nature and continue to contribute to it by allowing hunting and trapping. I will never support initiatives where wildlife is interfered with.

Re Spring Bear Hunt: Most Ontarians do not hunt, nor do they support sport hunting. Most Ontarians want our public lands to be free of violence. I urge Ontario legislators not to expand the Spring Bear Hunt pilot instituted by previous Liberal governments. Read more

How dare you take mother bears away from their cubs? How are cubs supposed to survive on their own if their mother is shot before their eyes? Bears are not an invasive species. Why do we as humans feel that we are the Almighty & can control who lives and who dies?! Read more
