I vehemently disapprove of this proposal to allow new licenses and the transfer of existing licenses for dog train and trial areas in Ontario. This is cruel to the wildlife you are entrapping and ultimately leading to their death. Read more

The penning of wild animals to train hunting dogs is a cruel and archaic practice which should be discontinued immediately, not expanded. Shame on the government for even considering it.

I always believed in the goodness of Canadians and was proud that we were known as peacekeepers, good people, kind people, caring people... I and most of my fellow Canadians cannot comprehend how anyone could find pleasure and enjoyment out of 'intentional cruelty'. 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 that are subjected to various methods used to train dogs to hunt. Read more

I am strongly opposed to using wildlife to train hunting dogs. It is cruel to take a wild animal from its natural habitat for the benefit of training dogs. Dogs can be trained well by not using this method. Surely this day and age, there is an alternative.

I’m finding it hard to believe in 2023 the government of Ontario is looking to introduce new levels of cruelty. Coyotes & red fox caught on registered traplines & rabbits to be used in dog training? Read more

With reference to your proposal, it is completely unethical to allow dogs to be trained using living beings as bait. As a Canadian, I am completely against this proposal, and hope the Canadian government will abandon this idea.

Please do not allow wildlife to be used as bait. This is cruel and inhumane. Why is the Ford government so determined to put off people who trusted them with their vote. I will not make that mistake again. Acting in such a blatantly cruel and sadistic manner towards living creatures Read more

Way to go Ontario in promoting cruelty to animals, in even considering this proposal. Spend your time and Our Taxpayer money wisely, by promoting, encouraging and sustaining proper, humane and respectable practices for well being of all Wildlife & Environment. Read more
