As an Ontario resident that spends a great deal of time in the outdoors across the province, I would like to express my strong opposition to the proposed reopening of the Ontario spring bear hunt. There is no logical reason for opening the hunt after all these years. Read more

As someone who cares about Ontario's wildlife, I am disappointed to learn that this government is now proposing a permanent spring bear hunt. At the time of the proposed "pilot" project I also submitted a comment in opposition and I am doing so again today. Read more

I would eliminate the spring hunting season for black bear. I have no issues with bears coming unto my property searching for food in spring. But I do have issues with illegal hunters trespassing on my property with their flying bullets. Read more

NO...opening up Spring bear hunt makes no sense and is WRONG for so many reasons. We seen so much illegal hunting, poaching, and baiting in the over 40 years we been living in bear country...and seeing a decline in population. People just shoot them and call them nuisance bears. Read more

There are a great deal of issues surrounding the existing spring bear hunt that have not been addressed appropriately. While The Fur-Bearers strongly oppose the spring bear hunt and believe it should be cancelled, there are issues that must be considered if it is to continue. Read more

Sport hunting is unethical and upsets the ecosystem in many ways. Leave the damned bears alone. If Ontario cannot find a way to live in harmony with nature, it says a lot about how ignorant and lazy the province is. You can do better. BAN THE BEAR HUNT.

Please reconsider extending the black bear hunt. We need to protect our wildlife not kill it. The reason many tourists come to Canada is because of our biodiversity, let’s be kinder to our fellow beings sharing our land and allow them to live a full life. Read more
