I wholeheartedly disagree with 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.

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.

It is appalling that this proposal is even being contemplated!! It is absolutely cruel and barbaric and is outlawed in every other province. We are in danger of going backward in terms of compassion towards animals.

While I can understand the environmental and economic impacts are neutral, I worry there is little concern or consideration for the welfare and wellbeing of the captive wildlife in these facilities. Are those animals unharmed in trapping?

This is absolutely disgusting, inhumane cruel… There are not enough words to describe this, and the thought that the government wants to allow this is absolutely absurd and goes to speak volumes of how pathetic our government is and we need a change NOW.

Is this the kind of cruelty to animals we want to teach our children - isn’t there enough violence in the world today.
Outlaw/ban the sport - don’t extend it!
Penned dog hunting facilities are cruel to the wild animals used to train dogs to hunt. I reject the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry's proposal to allow new licenses and the transfer of licenses for train and trial areas in this province.

We do NOT support The Ontario Governments proposed amendments to the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act to allow new licenses for dog train and trial areas, also known as penned dog hunting facilities.

I was shocked to learn that we allow this in the first place. Hunting CAPTIVE animals? As if holding them captive in the first place wasn’t cruel enough, we’re holding them captive so they can be stalked and killed? Disgraceful. Truly disgraceful. What is this, the Hunger Games?

I am absolutely shocked that consideration is even being given to this abhorrent and outdated practice. It seems almost akin to bear baiting and cock fighting. Society has moved far beyond these cruel sports.

I think this proposal is beyond disgusting. Dogs should never be trained to kill!! Our wildlife must be protected. All these places need to be shut down immediately and never again be allowed in our province. This makes me ashamed to be an Ontario citizen

I vehemently object to this proposal for train and trial licenses. It is a cruel and unconscionable practice to contain wild animals in pens to be preyed upon by dogs practicing hunting. What does this say about our society that this barbaric behavior is even considered and debated? Shameful.
This proposal is perfect. It stops the cancel culture we live in from taking another part of our heritage. We have been training and hunting with dogs for hundreds of years. No one wants to be cruel to anything and this proposal is very regulated and will prevent that.

Dear Sir/Madame,
Our Earth is warming from the climate crisis. There is massive deforestation to expand fields for anmal feed and ranching in the Amazon. 80% of agricultural land is used for animal farming. The root cause of the environmental crisis is how we see other animals and nature.
