As a resident of Ontario I think these proposed charges are abhorrent! It is absoluty disgusting that my government is allowing the trapping and abuse of wild animals! I pay taxes in this province. I am not paying money to support some sadistic hunter who enjoys tormenting innocent animals.

I very strongly oppose this plan, and ask our government to reconsider. This is a cruel practice that is absolutely not necessary. Dogs can be trained using fake bait, there is no reason to trap wild animals and torture them to death for the sake of sport like this.

This is out dated nonsense. There are many ways to achieve the same training objectives without victimizing wild animals. The cruelty is the point with this draconian policy. It's lazy, sad and pathetic. Stop it. Stop being gross.
The FWCA's stated purpose is to ensure the conservation, protection, and sustainable management of fish and wildlife in Ontario. It provides the legal framework for regulating activities related to hunting, fishing, trapping, and the protection of species at risk.

No thank you. There needs to be zero change to this. Let this disgusting practice die out the way it should. There is no need for this kind of cruelty and torment for the wildlife. If this is the only way to train these dogs, then maybe it's time to phase that out as well.

These incredibly cruel, ignorant and barbaric places should be getting shut down and banned, not expanding, as is proposed! Shame on those who make money off of torture and killing of living, sentient beings!

This needs to stop. The earth is for every living being. All I can say is may the universe show you the same kindness you show the wildlife. They did not ask or say yes to any of this. Do the right thing and protect wildlife not destroy.
These proposed changes are cruel and inhumane.
There is no need to expand the scope of this program - it provides no value to the great good of the citizens of Ontario.

This is archaic and inhumane. Why not trap humans to train police dogs? Sounds idiotic, right? Honestly the province of Ontario has more important issues to address than be involved in training dogs to hunt game for sport.

I want to speak out and stand up for the animals being tortured by this inhumane and cruel practice. Allowing penned animals to be hunted is appalling, these animals live in constant fear, are kept in terrible conditions and should be banned.
