Horrific. Cost benefits, or the fact that animal populations could sustain this is irrelevant. Animals should have a right to free will. Wild animals should not be captured for human purposes. This is disgusting and hope that it doesn’t get passed, and that the 24 in existence shut down.

I am strongly against this proposal and see it as another indication of how Ontario's government is happy to roll back policies that have been put in place by previous governments. Read more

It's hard to believe that with what we know about animal behaviour, the government would even consider a practice that is so out of step with modern ethical animal treatment. Please reconsider this step, as it makes our province a place that is not a place of enlightened policy but ignorance.

Please do not expand this practice. This is barbaric and animals should not be kept in cages and tortured to train other animals to hunt. Let's be more progressive and humane w our practices. This is basically animal culture. I will not vote for anyone supporting this.

While I don't see the harm in maintaining the current number of train and trial facilities in Ontario by allowing the transfer of licenses, I am strongly opposed to the proposal to increase the number of facilities.

I object very strenuously to this practice of using captive animals as bait! Simply put, it is cruel and barbarous ( to say nothing of the fact that that it is an UNNECESSARY practice ). I demand that it be stopped IMMEDIATELY. Read more

This is animal cruelty. You are proposing torture of wild animals simply so humans can have a little fun? Hunting is no longer a necessity in this day and age. But even if it were, it can be done without this torture you are proposing. Read more

Wildlife is not something for you to abuse and dispose. You should try to protect these animals that are already at risk of losing their habitat. The incompetence and greed is a cause of concern. Who is running these programs, who are you people that are hiding behind proposals and legislation. Read more

It is illegal to keep wildlife. There are by laws against feeding wildlife. How in the world is it permitted to keep wildlife for the purpose of torturing and killing for sport? This practice DOES NOT need to expand. Wildlife is wild for a reason. Read more
