This is cruel and barbaric. We need to move forward as a society and country NOT backwards. If this passes, our politicians are an embarrassment and a complete disappointment.
Animal Cruelty is what you are proposing; in this day and age I can’t believe that in our Province we are even considering this.
I strongly urge all levels of government to end this insanely cruel and unnecessary practice.

I am opposed to this proposal, as this form of dog training is archaic and unnecessary in this day and age.
The captivity of wild animals used to “train” hunting dogs is also cruel and inhumane.
Great way to take yet another step backward in Ontario society.
This is not OK. You’re creating an environment that is a hunger games style. This isn’t “natural”’or “Mother Nature” when you’re creating this environment, human made, and setting this up for animals to kill or be killed.

I am appalled by 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. No animals should be held captive and hunted. It’s a cruel and barbaric practice that has no place in Ontario.

I don’t know who thought up this bloodthirsty cruel proposal, but only someone with a sick depraved mind could do this. Keep wild animals trapped so dogs can be trained to rip them apart…seriously? Fox hunting has been banned in England because it is a cruel practice.

Hello! I highly disagree on having such training areas for dogs to practice hunting. Don’t think anybody has the right to trap prey animals and let hunters hunt them. Nobody has the right to kill anything unless for food.

Why do humans think all other species were put on earth for their entertainment , these are living creatures who all play an important role in the eco system ,they have families and feelings and have a significant role in raising their families .

Ford's government is once again showing it's seedy underbelly.
I would like to see him chased by a pack of dogs!
It is undeniable that this is the moat corrupt and thoughtless government that Ont. has even seen, and this further demonstrates how low they well go to keep their cronies happy!

* 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.

I strongly object to this proposal. This form of hunting is cruelty at it's worst, causing extreme and unnecessary distress and suffering to the wild animals either trapped or bred for this purpose.

This is extremely disgusting. I come from a family of hunters and even I think that this practice is barbaric. It leaves the hunted animals no chance for escape or survival. If you want to train your dogs do it properly where the animals have a fair chance. This is just lazy and cruel.
This practice is not only inhumane, but is also barbaric, and needs to stop immediately. In this day and age we should be moving toward becoming a more compassionate civilization, not moving backwards into the incredible cruelty that this practise represents.

A civilized nation does not promote hunting for sport or fun. pen training for dogs only promotes cruel hunting only to satisfy hunters lust for killing helpless animals.
