Bears are not harvested. Speak the truth.
The proposal to entrench bear hunting will bring risks to people, will weaken the species genetic pool and will upset ecosystems already adversely impacted by human activity.

Of course it’s not a good idea to bring back a bear hunt! It’s the job of the government to protect its people and animals, not allow others to kill them. This would be hugely disappointing and a worrying step back if our government allowed these animals to be destroyed.

I think the government should be working on protecting wildlife not killing them. You are not Gods. The world is also overpopulated with people but we don’t execute people hunts. These black bears deserve to live with their families and their children deserve parents.

I am strongly opposed to a spring bear hunt. It is cruel to hunt these animals after they come out of hibernation and are hungry. Although proposed for males only, it puts females with young cubs at risk of accidental killing.
Please do not bring back this repulsive hunt.
Instead of killing animals just trying to live their lives.
How about we educate humans how to protect their homes and families. Teach people how to make bears less interested in their properties and such.
Killing is not the answer.
Strongly opposed to changing black bear hunting rules, as a resident of Northern Ontario. We need a modern economy brought to us.
This makes rural Ontario look like we’re simple folks that can only make money shooting things, instead of bringing an actual solution to increase industry.
I am 100% in favour of a permanent return of the spring bear hunt. As a farmer we have seen fewer nuisance bears since the temporary spring hunt was re-established a few years ago. Several of our neighbours have been baiting bears in the spring and have had success with harvesting boars.

Please stop the bear hunts period. This is absolutely ridiculous in this day in age Canada is using wildlife to increase its tourism and economy. We should be investing time money research and program into ecotourism.

I support the bear hunting proposals. Bear hunting seasons should be set by scientific facts based on bear populations not by the emotions of urban residents.
Thank you.
I am not in favour of continuing the black bear hunt from May to June 2020. The Bears have declined over the years and have a right to live in our environment because we are the ones that push them out with our developments and housing.

This is disgusting. I think it’s crazy that humans think it’s ok to play god. There is a natural order to things. We have messed up this planet enough.

I do not agree with open bear hunt, especially in the spring as MANY mothers our shot , leaving orphaned cubs ( which I have had the unfortunate opportunity to watch die on our property more than once)...I don’t believe hunters can determine sex, before shooting.
