I sincerely urge you to end the spring bear hunt.
There is nothing virtuous about taking joy in needlessly killing an innocent animal minding its own business. What a barbaric practice!

I oppose a spring bear hunt. Hunting seasons impinge on the rights of those of us who enjoy walking on crown land without fear of being shot. Hunters do not always follow the law and it is impossible to provide adequate manpower to police it.

Bear cubs will continue to be orphaned if the hunt becomes permanent. While it’s currently against the law to kill cubs and mother bears accompanied by cubs, mother bears often leave their cubs in trees when searching for food.

I'm baffled by the need to maintain the black bear population with a willingness by the government to allow the hunting of black bears, albeit for a week, in the spring.

The spring bear hunt is cruel and idiotic.
Hunting bears just out of winter sleep is not a food driven activity as the bears are lean and desperate. They do not provide a good food source.
Hunters can not tell the difference between males and females reliably leading to many orphaned cubs.

This situation sounds to high a risk for black bears and their cubs. I am against this decision to pass this law. Nature has its own way of dealing with its species without the poor decisions of government stepping in to allow some trophy hunters bragging rights. Let nature take its course.

I propose to stop the bear hunt entirely. Killing animals for pleasure is cruel and inhuman and a civil country like Canada should not be carrying out these activities.
Absolutely opposed to the bear hunt!
This is inhumane, unfair, unjust, and should never happen!
Leave our wildlife alone and protecting them is the responsibility of our country, government, and citizens. They have as much right to be here as we do.
Please do not pass this law.
I have reviewed the outline of the proposal and think you have a good plan moving forward.
We need to continue to educate all residents of Ontario on the balanced approach to bear populations.

Please ban any and all trophy hunting.
I am ashamed the Canadian Government allows foreigners on our soil to degrade and destroy what Canada is known for the world over; wild and natural beauty.

I am opposed to the spring bear hunt because there is always a chance that killing a mother will result in orphaned cubs who may starve or be attacked by a preditor.

I can't think of a worse idea. Such an unethical initiative. Again, humans interfering where they shouldn't...with no doubt a vested financial interest being involved somewhere. Follow the money right to the powerful hunting lobby.
