Wildlife should never be taken from their natural environments and held captive by hunters. It’s especially cruel to use rabbits, coyotes, and foxes as pawns for hunters to train dogs and hold competitions.
This idea is so wrong I can’t even begin to list the reasons why. But at some level of decency you already know that this practice goes against every fair and humane aspect of civilized behaviour.

I don’t agree with what you want to do these animals could die from a heart attack if they are chased imagine the fear they will be going through just like a child running for their lives it’s the same thing you wouldn’t want a stranger chasing your child would you I definitely wouldn’t plus these a

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.

This is an abhorrent practice and needs to be banned. There is no longer any need for the practice other than bloodlust. Not only should this proposal be denied, the remaining train and trial areas should be closed and dismantled.
This is SICK and I can hardly believe that Canada, a "civilised" first world country is even considering facilitating such horrific cruelty. Please kill this proposal AND close down any existing facilities. Does blood lust really trump compassion, empathy and common decency in Canada??
Are you farking kidding me??
I thought you were trying to be more humane to animals.......not putting them in pens to be trapped and killed. What crazy lobby is suggesting this?
I do not support 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. These facilities are cruel to wildlife, as it submits these animals to repeated stress, which may cause them to die.

This is despicable. I feel like this province is going back in time and if I can figure out a plan to leave I would happily do so. I am ashamed to call Ontario home. Doug Ford hates nature and humans. So many decisions are a blatant disregard for life.

Please do not do this. We are already damaging wildlife with the influx of buildings tearing down their homes. This is inhumane and cruel. Do not pass this bill.

IT IS ABSOLUTELY BARBARIC TO USE DEFENCELESS CAGED WILDLIFE AS DECOYS FOR DOGS. THE DESTRUCTION OF GREEN SPACES IS THE CAUSE OF WILDLIFE TO BE ENCROACHING ON HUMAN SPACES. MORE SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS MUST BE FOUND AND EMPLOYED.

I believe this proposal is completely wrong , and the opposite direction to which civilised society should be heading. It is wrong and cruel on all fronts, and would interfere with wildlife, .
This is so wrong, on many levels. I don't want my grandson to grow up in a world where domestic pets are trained to kill. And I do not believe for one minute that the environmental consequences of this proposal will be "neutral". It is messing with the natural order of Ontario's ecosystems.

Please do not allow this change. Wildlife have already endured loss of habitat and suffering due to human population expansion and sprawl. This is inhumane and does not even allow the prey the chance to use their survival skills to escape.

As a farm owner and goat breeder, I firmly reject this proposal. 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.
