I do not support the proposal "Proposal to allow the issuance of licences for new dog train and trial areas and the transfer of licences", ERO number 019-3685. I see nothing in this proposal that will ensure the humane treatment of either dogs or wildlife.

I strongly oppose the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry’s proposal to allow new licenses, and the transfer of existing licenses, for dog train and trial areas in Ontario.
Penned dog hunting facilities are cruel to the wild animals used to train dogs to hunt.

This is barbaric, unnecessary and a waste of taxpayer money. We can’t afford to pay nurses but we can cater to rich sociopaths who want to torture wild animals?
I think it’s a wonderful idea to allow for new facilities to open up and properly train hunting dogs. I hope you don’t cave into to the environmentalists. They’ll come at you with ideological opinions without any considerations towards the hunting, trapping and dog training communities.

Have we gone back in time? Why would this proposal even be considered?! The decision to phase out these practices and the train and trial areas over time was the correct choice. Please do not consider allowing for license transfers nor new licenses to be issued.

The regulatory framework that this proposal serves to "remove barriers" for is a relic of a cruel and violent past that the province should be doing everything in their power to bury.

I want to voice my strong opposition to Ontario Government’s Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry’s proposed amendments to the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act to allow new licenses for dog train and trial areas in Ontario, as well as the transfer of existing licenses for the same.

I'm against the ministry's proposal.
Not only is it cruel to use wild animals to train dogs, but it's also bad publicity for the Ford govt.
Seriously, what were you thinking?
I'm sure you have some group lobbying for these changes, but is it worth the political damage it can cause?

This is absolutely barbaric. These wild animals deserve not to be hunted, especially without a chance to escape. Our government is showing a serious lack of basic ethics.
Having witnessed train and trial / penned coyote hunts directly, I would like to voice my disapproval of any plans to re-open licensing opportunities for new train and trial areas.

Hello,
Please do not issue licenses for new dog train and trial areas. Penned hunting is cruel to dogs, coyotes, and rabbits. Such facilities should be a part of the past, not the future.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

Penned dog hunting facilities are cruel to the wild animals used to train dogs to hunt.
I strongly oppose the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry’s proposal to allow new licenses, and the transfer of existing licenses, for dog train and trial areas in Ontario.
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.
I believe the capture and use of wild animals, or any animals, to train hunting dogs is unacceptable. The expansion of these training facilities cannot be allowed as it promotes the practise of abuse and cruelty towards wildlife in Ontario.
