This is a barbaric, cruel, and outdated proposal. I strongly disagree with the actions and practices outlined within this proposal, and I believe that kidnapping and torturing wildlife unnecessarily for the purpose of training dogs to hunt has no place in the Ontario that I want to live in.

As a proud Ontarian, this makes me sick. We should be going forward, not backwards. If the Ford government wants any chance of ever having my vote, they must remove this cruel and inhumane proposal.

Broadening an inhumane and cruel practice is a step backwards. Trapping and then hunting wild animals in an enclosed area for sport and competition is something that should be banned, not expanded. Read more

I firmly reject the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry’s proposal to allow new licenses and the transfer of licenses for train and trial areas in Ontario. Penned dog hunting facilities are cruel to the wild animals who are subjected to various methods used to train dogs to hunt. Read more

Why would we go BACKWARDS with policies and practices that we realized decades ago needed to be changed to protect wild animals? This is animal cruelty we’re discussing here and it’s absolutely unacceptable to think it’s okay, let alone to suggest that we should have more of it. Read more

Please reject the proposal to allow new licenses for dog hunting pens. Dog hunting pens are so wrong. Trapping and capturing wild animals, such as foxes, coyotes, rabbits, and holding them captive, using them to train dogs in these dog hunting pens, is unbelievably cruel. Read more

This seems like an inhumane way to treat animals. Though I'm not a hunter, I have no problem with people who are. However I believe there must be ways to train dogs to hunt safely and effectively without using caged wildlife. Read more
