This is absolutely disgusting! Opening applications for train and trial spaces after 25 years is a massive step backward into the past. These facilities have no place in Ontario.

Any wild animals held in captivity are being tortured, they are terrorized the entire time that they are being held, only to rachet up the fear just when they can see freedom as the door opens. They make a break for it & are caught & torn to pieces.

There is no valid reason to expand captive coyotes being hunted down by dogs. There is no benefit to society for dogs trained to kill animals, no ecocooigical benefit, and there is no argument that this type of hunting supports sustenance like other forms.

Ripping animals apart is not a 'sport'. Dogs are pets and shouldn't be allowed to attack other species. You conservatives are nothing but barbarian killers, destroying the environment and now wanting to kill off innocent animals that have EVERY right to live a peaceful life.

I like to voice my opposition to this barbaric and unnecessary cruel practice that only shows the current government inability and lack of commitment to environmental and animal welfare causes.
This seems quite cruel. I see the need for hunting dogs as some persons are unable to afford animal protein in butcher or grocery establishments, however, wildlife should not be contained in an area to meet this need. These animals did not ask for that and have no means of escape.

This is a foolish and wasteful idea. It serves no practical purpose and is an abuse of the animals and would most likely result in further and worse undocumented abuse and killing.
I didn't even know Ontario had these horrific pens. Please do not let any more come into existence. And how about shutting down the ones that already are?
Shame on you Ontario!
Trapping animals important to the ecosystem for bloodsport is a horrendous act of cruelty, as is training companion animals to lose their nonaggression and neutrality to wildlife, breeding in high prey drive to them. I oppose!
I didn't want to take the time to register, but I have to comment! These kinds of facilities are ridiculous, unethical, barbaric, cruel, and have NO place in our time!!!!!

I am appalled at the archaic measures that Canada is taking in regards to their dog train and trial license and the devastating effect it has and will continue to have

This is disgusting and inhumane and should not be allowed! The ones that still exist should also be closed down. This cruelty to animals and should be banned.
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 that are subjected to various methods used to train dogs to hunt.
